Our health care system kills ~ 100,000 patients every year by medical mistakes -that’s over 10/hr -24hr/day – 7 days/wk and over 1,000,000 are harmed by medication mistakes. Yet we hear very little about all of this. A group of nurses go on strike and MAYBE one patient dies because of the action of one nurse and it makes national news and local news coast to coast. I guess this one death can be stirred up to be more sensational than the other 200+ that die that day from medical mistakes
