Doc statistics

A recent Reader's Digest poll of physicians found some shocking statistics:
  • 60% of doctors do not follow hand-washing guidelines
  • 96% of doctors agree they should report impaired or incompetent colleagues or those who make serious mistakes, but...
  • 46% of them admit to having turned a blind eye at least once
  • 94% of doctors have accepted some kine of freebie from a drug company
