Medical errors kill tens of thousands annually

March 1st, 2012


Next time someone starts telling you about all the people guns kill have them
look at the following CNN site! Here’s a qoute from it, read the whole
article it’s interesting.

“…The report from the National Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Medicine
cited studies showing between 44,000 and 98,000 people die each year because
of mistakes by medical professionals.

“That’s probably an underestimate for two reasons,” noted Dr. Donald Berwick
of the Institute of Medicine.

Mind you these folks are “licensed.”
