Here's Your Placebo

The American Medical Association suggests that doctors should give placebos to their patients only if the patient is informed of and agrees to the use of the placebos.

Seriously.

Won't telling the patient negate the whole point of the placebo in the first place?

I already didn't want Washington bureaucrats in charge of my health care but now I'm not sure about the doctors.
