There was a KunstlerCast podcast earlier this year, while kunstler.com worked, with a doctor/surgeon. I do not recall his name, nor how one can find this very interesting and informative podcast.

The doctor referenced the Libby Zion Case, 1984, in New York. This case ultimately changed the medical intern regimen and made it easier, using the rationale that Libby Zion died because the interns were overworked. However, JHK's guest shared the view, according to many in the medical profession, that reducing the ardor of internships has led to doctors who are not as sharp as they used to be.

Reference the Libby Zion Case:
Yeah, well, that's just another result of what's been going on since the mid to late 1970s when, especially, but not limited to, self hating Jewish doctors saw that there was a disparity between the percentage of those with enhanced melanin in the population as opposed to those entering medical school and decided to decrease the rigor of the testing and establish quotas (read: giveaways) for those coveted spots. (Don't quote me, but I think that was about the time when they decided to change autopsy language for doctor induced death from malpractice to 'medical misadventure'. That way everybody's off the hook.)
Now, of course, we have doctors practicing who have to have interpreters in the room with them in order to communicate with English speakers.
Isn't progress grand?
