Doctor-Caused Disease

 

One of the most common causes of disease (if not the most common

cause) is conventional medical doctors! Sad, but too often true. The

medical term coined to describe this problem is iatrogenic disease,

from the Greek " iatros " meaning physician and " genesis " meaning

origin. Thus we have doctor-caused disease. Specifically, iatrogenic

disease is defined as:

 

Any adverse reaction, either major or minor, to a medical or surgical

treatment.

 

The late Robert Mendelsohn, M.D., while Chairman of the Medical

Licensing Committee for the State of Illinois and Associate Professor

of Preventive Medicine and Community Health at the University of

Illinois School of Medicine, wrote:

 

.. . . the greatest danger to your health is the doctor who practices

Modern Medicine. I believe that Modern Medicine's treatments for

disease are seldom effective, and that they're often more dangerous

than the diseases they're designed to treat . . . I believe that more

than 90% of Modern Medicine could disappear from the face of the

earth-doctors, hospital, drugs, and equipment-and the effect on our

health would be immediate and beneficial.

 

DOCTORS ON STRIKE

 

Whenever medical doctors go on strike, a most interesting phenomenon

occurs - death rates go down! In 1976 in Bogota, Columbia medical

doctors went on strike for 52 days, with only emergency care

available. The death rate dropped by 35%. In 1976 in Los Angeles

County a similar doctors' strike resulted in an 18% drop in mortality.

As soon as the strike was over, the death rate went back to normal. A

50% decrease in mortality occurred in Israel in 1973 when there was a

one month doctor's strike!
