[p2p-research] effects on conventional medicine

Gary Null, who reported the results of an exhaustive independent
review<http://www.garynull.com/pix/DeathbyMedicine_march09bf2Faloon.pdf>by
the Nutrition Institute of America in 2004. The reviewers concluded
that
the number one killer is not heart disease or cancer but conventional
medicine itself. Conventional medicine was found to be responsible for an
estimated 783,936 deaths annually, including 106,000 deaths from adverse
drug reactions, 98,000 from medical errors, and 88,000 from infection; and
those figures were conservative, since no more than 20 percent of iatrogenic
(doctor- or drug-caused) mishaps are ever reported.

Sepp, is this something you could cover?
