"A Harvard law professor who co-authored the study calculated the annual
national number of dead to be 150,000, with 234,000 injuries - and this estimate only included injuries and deaths caused
by doctors in hospitals. By comparison, in 1992, 42,000 persons were
killed in highway crashes; 27,000 died as victims of a crime; 23,000 died of AIDS. As one consumer group press release reads,
"Negligent doctors kill more than twice the number of people
killed by firearms and twice the number of people
killed by auto accidents...."
and of course in regards to professors:
"
Overall, the federal figures report 57 percent of White students finish their degree, compared with 44 percent of Hispanics and 39 percent of Blacks."
