3) Do you disagree with the American Medical Association, made up of Physicians, who have also presumably reviewed the scientific literature before advocating helmet use?
1) doesn't matter
2) don't know
3) yes for reasons stated. Whole population data do not support their statements. Physicians, as you realize I am sure, have often been wrong.
