- Abstract (maximum 500 words)
Today wiki has been the source of information for most of the public but it saddens me to see that all the health care topics are biased towards allopathy. At lot many places we have seen that a disease is written incurable but its incurable in a particular system of medicines. If some disease is incurable in allopath, it doesn't means its incurable in all the systems of medicines. so its unacceptable to toe the allopathic line and deprive the public from looking for some alternate source for their healing.
