Lessons from Jon Barron The Failure of the Modern Medical Paradigm    In this week's excerpt from "Lessons from the Miracle Doctors," Jon Barron exposes the failure of the modern medical paradigm. "It is not a coincidence that time after time, when doctors go on strike, mortality rates drop dramatically in those cities or countries. In 1976, in Bogota, Columbia, medical doctors went on strike for fifty-two days, with only emergency care available. The death rate dropped by 35 percent. In 1976, in Los Angeles County, a similar doctors' strike resulted in an 18 percent drop in mortality. As soon as the strike was over, the death rate went back to previous levels. A 50 percent decrease in mortality occurred in Israel in 1973 when there was a thirty-day doctors' strike—with similar results seen in doctor strikes in 1983 and 2000! This should not be surprising when you also note the Institute of Medicine's report entitled To Err is Human, which states that medical errors cause as many as 98,000 deaths each year in the U.S. alone, more than traffic accidents, breast cancer, or AIDS. Right behind prescription drugs, medical error is the fifth leading cause of death. Understand, this is not an attack on medical doctors, the vast majority of whom are extremely competent, highly dedicated, and often even heroic. Nevertheless, it is important to realize that when it comes to the major diseases of our time, the modern medical paradigm of searching for "magic bullets" and managing symptoms with drugs has failed miserably." -- We hope you enjoyed this week's excerpt from Lessons from the Miracle Doctors.
