Wow, was I annoyed and irritated when I tried to look up some information on medical symptoms from well known and respected sources of medical information on the Internet on the first day of 2022. That is when I discovered that the world famous non profit Mayo Clinic now mixes its health information with consumer advertisements. I believe this is new as I have previously looked up information on a number of occasions on the same Mayo Clinic website.
I am not sure I appreciate this crass commercialization! I bet, the charges for medical services will not be lowered by displaying this advertisement!
It certainly subtracts from the credibility, integrity, and trustworthiness of the information provided!
It looks very cheap and cheesy!
P.S. Of course, I did not look up the common cold! I only used the common cold as an example.
