Re: [Marxism] Abolish the Fucking Hospitals: The leading cause ofdeath and injury in the United States

["S. Artesian" <sartesian@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Wait, wait, wait... doctors [and hospitals] kill a lot of people by 
accident?  Accidents never happen.  Negligence, carelessness, unsanitary 
practices, introduction of sepsis through intrusive procedures do happen.

Doctors associated with Johns Hopkins have been in the forefront of making 
hospitals and medical center utilize checklist procedures to guard against 
sepsis, improper medication, improper dosage of the proper medication, etc.

Now those procedures are truly scientific, based on analysis of masses of 
data about infection, and reinfection rates in hospitals, and the associated 
mortality rates associated with the infection and reinfection rates..

As for the 90%-10% vs the 100%-- that's baloney.  The reality is that 100% 
those dying in hospitals, and medical centers, from unsanitary procedures 
would recover.  No doctor with a shred of dignity, commitment, pride, would 
practice medicine killing 10% of his/her patients unless the patients were 
lab rats.

Tell me what procedures, medicines the FDA has approved for general use, 
even under Bush/Cheney that involve 10% mortality rates to patients?
