8. I am somehow both disturbed and unsurprised by this news. And yes, we do need to update surgical training.

6) Never mind that he's a war criminal, I don't think anybody should be allowed to receive a knighthood who, if he had one, would be called 'Sir Tony'. Those two words just don't go together.

Date: 2022-01-05 07:13 pm (UTC)Other people thought it might be because of not listening to patients. Consistent procedures that rely less on listening to patients did seem to reduce death rates. ie, measuring post-partum blood loss for everyone, so a problem will be automatically detected even if doctors don't take somebody's complaints seriously. That sort of thing isn't a complete failsafe, because there will always be problems your automatic procedures aren't set up to catch.
