And I am fascinated about the fact that hospitals brag about how safe
their hospitals are when it was reported recently in some journal or
other (I can't find it for the life of me) that approximately 90,000
people each year die in hospitals for reasons unrelated to their
admission diagnosis. In Indianapolis, due to a screw-up in
medications, 4 premies died, and many die of antibiotic-resistant
staph infections. I worked in hospitals for 8 years and hope I never
have to go to one for any reason.
