Physician Heal Thyself
The Faculty of Public Health is in the news today again demanding more restrictions on booze. They have a blog - Better Health For All where the tag cloud shows they witter on about Swine Flu, Alcohol Binge Drinking, health practioners, US healthcare and the big one Climate Change.
They are so concerned with Climate Change that they have launched their message, not once but twice on Youtube: The 5 minute version has been eagerly devoured by 71 people, the 2 minute one by 52 people:
Now I have helped them publicise it maybe you could leave them a comment as no one else seems to be interested in what they are saying.
I couldn't find where they worry about the 3000 deaths in English hospitals "as a result of patient safety incidents", or the superbug deaths or the 300,000 people suffer from a healthcare-associated infection every year - 8 per cent of all hospital patients or the up to 20,000 deaths a year from infections not being monitored by the NHS.. Maybe they would be better used scrubbing wards instead of arranging agreeable conferences to discuss "big issues"...
