Good To Know

[StrechM]

An old one.


GOOD TO KNOW:

The number of physicians in the United States is 700,000

Accidental deaths caused by Physicians per year is 120,000.

Accidental deaths per physician is 0.171. (US Dept. of Health & Human Services)

THINK ABOUT THIS:

The number of gun owners in the US is 80,000,000 (yes,eighty-million!).

The number of accidental gun deaths per year (all age groups) is 1,500.

The number of accidental deaths per gun owner is .0000188.

Statistically, doctors are about 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners.

FACT:

NOT EVERYONE HAS A GUN, BUT ALMOST EVERYONE HAS A DOCTOR.

Alert your friends to this threat.

We must ban doctors before this gets out of hand.

As a public health measure -

I have withheld the statistics on lawyers for fear that the shock could cause people to seek medical attention.

Lol. Honeslty, I'm a great shot and have perfect vision but this kid was like a Junior shooting master. I could c him wining youth $$$ shooting comps in two years. The funny thing is that he doesn't even shoot that often or car for firearms much.

That's some good reading... but don't know now that 75% of all statistics are made up???

Interesting statistics, StrechM.
So, if I interpret this correctly, my odds of being shot are pretty low, but if I DO get shot, my odds of surviving go way up if I do not go to a doctor to have the bullet removed.

If that happens I'll give you a few shots of whiskey and dig it out with a pair of needle nose.

And for those who have been around a while, I'm a doctor of audiology, not a physician, so I haven't killed anyone.....yet....
