It’s the sort of thing Antiques Roadshow dreams are made of: the bit of op-shop tat that turns out to be a long-lost masterpiece, worth a tidy fortune. Mostly, though, what people are holding on to really is just a bit of old tat. If you don’t believe
Dr Jay Bhattacharya, MD, PhD, is a professor of health policy at Stanford University School of Medicine, where he researches epidemiology and health economics. So, when you’re told to “listen to the experts”, he’s the kind of guy you’d think they’d listen to, not some media
