Indeed, statistics is fine, but I think the problem is larger than scientists being poorly educated. It looks to me like an awful lot of scientists aren't acting in good faith. I don't think that their conduct necessarily rises to the level of dishonesty, more like they aren't taking obvious steps to mitigate the potential for erroneous results.
