Society for Individual Freedom

According to Tell-IT, lack of proper information is a major factor contributing to 10,000 deaths a year from adverse drug reactions. Tell-IT is an informal organisation within the SIF that campaigns for information technology to be used to analyse information on the outcomes of drugs and treatments and for this information to be available to doctors and patients alike.

For the story of Tell-IT and its close association with Epic, the company that has been facilitating access to anonymous data from GPs for the General Practise Research Database, please see the articles by Peter Jackson in the May 2002 and January 2004 issues of The Individual and the report to the 2005 AGM carried in the February 2006 issue of The Individual. Needless to say, the behaviour of the State in this saga has often been bizarre.

Tell-IT is "on hold" for now, but might spring to life if the occasion arises. If you wish further information about the campaign, please contact Tell-IT at tellit@individualist.org.uk or via the SIF's postal address.
