Foolish and ignorant comments are amazing. Some just tell a blatant lie. The libturd lawyers that attempted to hijack the medical profession under obunga’s watchful eye have failed. It’s as if medicine has advanced no more than the use of electricity in Ben Franklin’s day. Is it just ignorance?
Heres a second medical study.
According to a new study8 published in the British Medical Journal (BMJ), medical errors now kill an estimated 250,000 Americans each year, an increase of about 25,000 people annually from Starfield’s estimates.
That means medical errors are STILL the third leading cause of death, right after heart disease and cancer. These numbers may actually be vastly underestimated, as deaths occurring at home or in nursing homes are not included.
As shown by Starfield’s research, side effects from drugs, taken as prescribed, account for the vast majority of iatrogenic deaths. Research9 published in 2013 estimated that preventable hospital errors kill 210,000 Americans each year a figure that is very close to the latest statistics.
Between the two studies I referenced, both medical associations, you now have a starting point to do your own research.
Best.
