Doctors and Guns

RE: Doctors and Guns
I'm gonna have to side with the Doc on this one. I think those stats are probably off.
My thoughts, too.
The problem is that no matter how hard we try, not every patient can be saved, and when we fail to save a hopelessly ill patient there is often a tendency for some to claim that it was the doctor's fault that the patient died.

RE: Doctors and Guns
I'd have to back up CaliforniaDoctor on this one. Everyone has the option to refuse medical treatment if ever offered to them. Next time one you has severe chest pain and is worried about the doctor killing them, I encourage you to lay down and die peacefully. It will save some poor doctor from getting called out of bed to come save your life. I'M JOKING!
There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics.
