During the last of the little contact I had with the PO of my boat

he
told me that their entire cruising season had just been wiped out
because the doctor or technician managed to poke the probe through

his
colon and hospitalize him with peritonitis.



60,000-70,000 die every year from medical mistakes....and is not
"news" for investigative reporting.......Why?
