Presumably because it would require actively polling patients to monitor their outcomes. Its quite common that you don’t hear much from those who get better, only from those who continue to seek treatment. And of those who stop seeking treatment you don’t know how many are actually better either.
- simonebrunozzi 7y agoI think you are right, this might be the main reason.
