Medical Treatment--Is it True?

Hello,

I just read it and is quite shocking to me.

Quote:

Even more significantly, the medical system has played a large role in undermining the health of Americans. According to several research studies in the last decade, a total of 225,000 Americans per year have died as a result of their medical treatments: 12,000 deaths per year due to unnecessary surgery • 7000 deaths per year due to medication errors in hospitals • 20,000 deaths per year due to other errors in hospitals • 80,000 deaths per year due to infections in hospitals • 106,000 deaths per year due to negative effects of drugs Thus, America's healthcare-system-induced deaths are the third leading cause of the death in the U.S., after heart disease and cancer.http://ift.tt/x7x28S

Is it reality or just fake claim?

Short discussions please.

Best wishes.
