Whom Do We Kill First, The Shylocks Or The Croakers?

We gave up smoking & drinking, now we have to give up eating as well?

Actor reveals to the Guardian that HPV, transmitted through oral sex, was responsible for his throat cancer

News for the medical community: If you miss a walnut-sized tumor anywhere on our body you will not live longer than we do. Matter of fact, we dare say the survival rate for medical incompetents will not be significantly above zero.

The actor, now 68, was diagnosed with cancer in August 2010, following many months of oral discomfort. But a series of specialists missed the tumour and instead prescribed antibiotics. Douglas then went to see a friend's doctor in Montreal who looked inside his mouth using a tongue depressor.

"I will always remember the look on his face," Douglas has previously said. "He said: 'We need a biopsy.' There was a walnut-size tumour at the base of my tongue that no other doctor had seen."

When can we eliminate humanoids from medical practice & hand the whole scam over to robots who'll get it right the first time w/o practicing?
