From: "shreyashi.ganguly"  

we have all joined this mission with a definite purpose of serving this
country through dedicated work and evolved initiative...  but there are
some minor difficulties which are besetting and off-setting us from
reaching any defined or resolute standard or hard work....

in my opinion, for the betterment of the bangalore chapter, we need:
1. active participation from members.
2. clear outlines of theories of propagation
3. definite work given to each individual, so that if there is a fault,
it would reflected and rectified at the grass root level.
4. availability of data... of the things done... and the things to be
done.
[maintenance of a clear journal/minute/activity schedule]
5. clarification of numbers/ contact info of the senior or more active
members to the not so pro-active.
case in point, i have two numbers of muruganandan, yet i can never
reach him if i need information. this method is highly inadequate.
please help.
6. making the interface more user-friendly
{not all of us are engg/techies/comp people... its really difficult
keeping a track when such amount of information is being exchanged...
as to what is really important.]

i hope others may have observed similar things... or i may be wrong in
certain issues...
so please discuss and clarify these doubts for me.

thank you

ps: i haven't been a model member of bm-bangalore so far, because of my
university exams which would continue till mid april. after which i am
sure i would be able to take an active hand in the work along with my
fellow members. sorry for the inconvenience and the lack of
participation so far.

Dear Sirs,
   
  The complete summary of the report Death by Medicine (in 2 parts) can he 
downloaded here. This report has stirred the hornets nest as the FDA has been 
pushed into the backfoot and forced to ensure that a system of control will be 
now built into the healthcare system in US. Can you imagine that such a system 
was NEVER IN PLACE TILL DATE? This is very shocking and results in 9.99 lakh 
deaths every year (7.83 lakh deaths admitted by the medical industry) in the 
USA alone. Critics want the 7.83 lakh figure to be multiplied 20 times as only 
5% of reported cases are recognised. This is EXTREMELY SHOCKING and shows the 
entire medical industry in a bad light.
   
  I hope this book will prompt the Indian government to conduct a similar study 
in India and release the concerned figures to the general public. How long will 
the health activists be crying hoarse? How much longer will patients have to 
suffer needlessly? How many more people need to be killed before Govt's wake up 
and ensure the revival of holistic healing methods? The current bird flu has 
killed 98 people so far and is getting so much attention. What about the 
billions who are being slaughtered in the altar of modern medicine? How much 
more blood has to be shed before corrective steps are taken?
   
  The profits from the book will be utilised by health activists to campaign 
for the necessary reforms in the health sector. I would request everyone to 
kindly purchase this book, it has already started up a spate of enquiries in 
India after Swami Ramdev flashed it in a TV interview.

            Death by Medicine, Part I & II                        By Gary Null 
PhD, Carolyn Dean MD ND, Martin Feldman MD, Debora Rasio MD, Dorothy Smith PhD
   
  ABSTRACT
  A definitive review and close reading of medical peer-review journals, and 
government health statistics shows that American medicine frequently causes 
more harm than good. The number of people having in-hospital, adverse drug 
reactions (ADR) to prescribed medicine is 2.2 million.1 Dr. Richard Besser, of 
the CDC, in 1995, said the number of unnecessary antibiotics prescribed 
annually for viral infections was 20 million. Dr. Besser, in 2003, now refers 
to tens of millions of unnecessary antibiotics.2, 2a

  Please take a printout and study the full 33 page article at leisure. I warn 
you that the statistics and arguments put forward in the book will stun you. 
There has never been such a strong indictment of the medical community.
   
  Yours faithfully,
  Jagannath Chatterjee.

Is that anything less than a slap on the face of civil society??

and the burghers of civil law are going to sit and do nothing!

How do we propose to contain such events in future, and what would be a
right deterrent??
