Interesting point.
Doctors
(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.

Health and 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.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
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.
This means you are over 900 times more likely to be killed by a doctor than a gun owner!!!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
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 withheld the statistics on lawyers
for fear that the shock would cause
people to panic and seek medical attention!
lol on lawyers.
Numbers for industrial medicine are actually far worse than the government stats would indicate. It’s pretty much the number one cause of death in the US once you add everything up, and mostly preventable.
