But just to make sure that the Japanese medical lobby's side is heard: 1) They didn't cover it up for more than a month, they just needed to be sure all their facts were straight. 2) They only fucked up a few peoples' health, I'm sure other countries are just as bad. 3) Do you have any idea how complicated radiology is? No? Then shut the hell up. Actually, what is kind of surprising is that it took them 11 years to find out their error. Just like my graddad always says, hospitals are the most unhealthy places on the planet. Avoid them if you want to live a long and healthy life. -- Regards, Ryan Ginstrom
