**Medical eponym handling.**
Eponyms from 2018-03-27 snapshot of:
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_eponymously_named_diseases
Remember the following:
- Patient names should be removed using their identifiable information.
Removing all known names is just an additional experimental safety measure.
- The eponyms are removed from the name lists, before the name lists are
used to scrub text -- so we don't scrub "Parkinson's disease", as an
obvious example.
- Consequently, we can be quite liberal here. Including "Turner", for example
(a common UK name but also in Turner's syndrome) won't prevent a Mr Turner
from being anonymised.
- However, the point is to scrub out some inadvertent names, so maybe not
too liberal!
