The facts are that the veterinary scientific community says, repeatedly and with emphasis, that you are wrong. The veterinary community says that yes, Exercise-Induced Pulmonary Hemorrhage scars lungs and causes increasing and permanent damage over time.
No. The facts don't lie.
People who are non-scientifically oriented mistakenly think that simply saying something with conviction, and repeating it ever more loudly, makes something true. They are wrong. And it needs to stop.

I don't own horses, never have, but I've been around plenty of barns. 93% bleed. Do you know the percentage of horses that get Lasix? Are you saying it is 93% or lower? Ummm, I think not.
By damage, I'm saying it doesn't cause a decrease in performance. If it did, we would see it on the track from all those Euro horses that aren't "entitled" to Lasix. Doesn't seem to phase them one bit.
