Hey, it's not my issue if you throw swearwords around in lieu of rational argument, or accuse people of innumeracy instead of offering actual research. As i said, nevermind

Hey, it's not my issue if "bullshit" is the single best word to describe estimates of 250-440K deaths due to medical error per year.

Do you really believe that 60% of all inpatient deaths are due to medical error? Yes or no?

Some numbers are so utterly ridiculous that one can reject them on plausibility alone. If 60% of inpatient deaths really are due to medical error, then Gary Null is right and we should just hang it up and let the quacks take over. Right,

Calling the results of research "utterly ridiculous" without having a better research corpus to offer is nonsense. Or as i said, nonsense on stilts. It is kvetching of the most puerile kind

So to accept estimates as high as 440K? That's 61% of all inpatient deaths. 250K is 28%.

Oh dear. Seems you are unfamiliar with basic quality & safety terminology The "Voice of the Customer" (VoC), which you mock, is a foundational concept within the industry, and essential to understanding quality improvement. VoC doesn't refer to "customer" in the usual sense /2
