this was handed out at my hopsital...***antartican..forgive me for the last!!!***

Subject: think about this
(A) The number of physicians in the U.S. is
700,000.
(B) Accidental deaths caused by Physicians per
year are 120,000.
(C) Accidental deaths per physician is 0.171.
Statistics courtesy of U.S. Dept of Health Human
Services.
Now think about this:
Guns:
(A) The number of gun owners in the U.S. is
80,000,000. (Yes, that's 80 million..)
(B) The number of accidental gun deaths per year,
all age groups, is 1,500.
(C) The number of accidental deaths per gun owner
is .000188.
Statistics courtesy of FBI
So, statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000
times more dangerous than gun owners.
Remember, "Guns don't kill people, doctors do."
FACT: NOT EVERYONE HAS A GUN, BUT ALMOST EVERYONE
HAS AT LEAST ONE DOCTOR.
Please alert your friends to this alarming threat.
We must ban doctors before this gets completely
out of hand!!!!!
Out of concern for the public at large, I have
withheld the statistics on lawyers for fear the shock
would cause people to panic and seek medical attention
