at treatment does not itself understand the implications of giving that treatment?"

The reason being it does not collate data on that treatment.

Another question. In what other branch of medicine would an NHS be allowed to get away with such sloppy practice around data and evidence?

Why are children with gender dysphoria exempted from the usual safeguards?

Not only contrary to all notions of medical ethics, then – like "first do no harm" – but, it would seem, grossly incompetent as well.

The judgment is a damning indictment of clinical practice at the GIDS. The case was decided on facts and evidence known to the Tavistock, and ultimately on the lack of facts and the weakness of the evidence in the Tavistock’s defence. The GIDS lacked even basic data on children who had been given puberty blockers. […]

This is the result of a service that operates on the basis of ideology in place of clinical standards. The judgment raises the issue of medical negligence and our immediate concern is for the children who have already been through this medical system.

This case has shone a light on the worst and most unforgivable result of the institutional capture throughout society by the gender lobby: the medical experiment on children’s healthy bodies, with serious irreversible and lifelong consequences.
