Abstract

One explanation for breakdown of the traditional medical connection of diagnosis and treatment is presented. It is suggested that it was a natural process brought to life by the results of the development of genetics and the results of the application of clinical epidemiology (the theory of evidence-based medicine), which led to the beginning of the downfall of the nosological concept, so far de facto, and in the long term de jure. Medicine is painfully returning to a holistic view of a patient.
