In 1976 in Bogota, Colombia, doctors went on
strike during a 52-day period.
The death rate went down 35% during that time.
In Los Angeles in 1976, doctors went on strike to protest increasing costs of
malpractice insurance.The death rate decreased by 18%. When the strike ended,
the death rate returned to prestrike proportions.
In Israel in 1973, during a month-long strike, the death rate dropped 50%. The
last time the death rate had been that low was when there was a doctors's strike
20 years
before. (In Israel wird die Neue Medizin angewendet!!)

Never, if possible, lie down at night without
being able to say: I have
made one human being, at least, a little wiser, a little happier, or a
little better this day. ~Charles Kingsley
