Medical news I had no need to hear

 

CNN brings us this life-changing news headline:



Of all the medical information I never expected to hear (or need, for that matter), I daresay that has to rank pretty high up the list.  Didn't we have enough strain in our lives already?

Oh, well.  To quote the Moody Blues, "Face piles of trials with smiles"!

I do not believe anything that CNN says.

This is a retrospective epidemiological study which are worthless! A risk study might consist of two groups, the group with the "cause" who had the effect and the group without the "cause" who had the effect. the actual size of the cohort without the "cause" is HUGE and how many of them lied? this is so bogus it is laughable.

My mother told me not to delay on the commode when I was young, stating just that reason. I'm 80 and still waiting for it to happen. Just one non-accounted for subject.

Had a friend who would call while in both positions. I asked why and he really had no idea he could be heard. Never called me again when involved in the bathroom. Why, would anyone take a phone in there? That's the question I want answered. Maybe the gov would give me a million to research this?

Using the phone to do what???

I've seen a lot of different things inserted in places you shouldn't while working in the ER, but using phones for that would be a first.
