To Whom It May Concern in the matter of The H. C. Jacobaeus Lecture Prize 2012

With grief we become aware that The H. C. Jacobaeus Lecture Prize 2012 will be awarded to Anthony Weetman at The International Tyreoideasymposium on 29 November this year, in Gardermoen, Norway.

Anthony Weetman is painfully well known by thyroid patients worldwide, in a way that is miles far from the honor and gratitude.

Can it really be true that Novo Nordisk Foundation will honor Anthony Weetman, despite the fact that this doctor treats the majority of thyroid patients as mentally ill?

Is it a position on thyroid diseases and patients, Novo Nordisk Foundation shares with Anthony Weetman?

It is well documented that Anthony Weetman practicing a simplistic approach to thyro-endocrinology.

Does this mean that when Novo Nordisk Foundation wants dignify this doctor with The H. C. Jacobaeus Lecture Prize 2012 - supports the Novo Nordisk Foundation Anthony Weetman's oversimplification of thyro-endocrinology?

Considering HC Jacobaeus' honorable contributions to the history of science, must The H. C. Jacobaeus Lecture Prize 2012 to Anthony Weetman be considered as an affront to HC Jacobaeus and as an Novo Nordisk Foundation's active contribution to the gap between doctors and thyroid patients that will become even wider and deeper, than it is already.

Sincerely,
Administrators and users of thyroid forums in Scandinavia
