The ‘July Effect’ Increases Hospital Deaths

If you don’t have a compelling reason to visit the hospital in July, don’t go.

The “July Effect” was discovered recently when hospitals began seeing a 10% increase in teaching hospital deaths due to medical errors.

The reason? July is the month when all of the med school graduates start work as interns, and they have no idea what they’re doing.

It├óΓé¼Γäós a necessary evil, unfortunately, but if you can help it — stay home July!
