We all want to publish in NEJM. It gains us mega-points in the all important publish or perish rat race. Because it has something like a trizillion points in citation-weighted scoring for promotion or retention, every piece of drivel in NEJM counts. Dr. Dalrymple (Dickens and I know his real name is Smith) knows that perfectly well.
Of course Zimbabwe exports docs, nurses, lawyers, high school graduates, auto mechanics, and peasants. Who would stay? Why act like docs are special?
