In this article of The Country , delve on this subject and also many examples of reliable sources, give us some guidelines for distinguishing the wheat from the chaff:

And so the e-patient Dave concludes: " It breaks my heart to think that the good lives that are ruined by our cultural inability to deal honestly with the mistakes that happen in complex environments. "
