Actually Dan40 "drew first blood" on the attack side of the WHO study.
I have read details of that report, how the data was gathered and what it was based on in particular. Like I said, I think it is a fair asessment, based on my review, while understanding there are many that question the methodology used to arrive at the numbers. One big reason I think it is fair is because it essentially mirrors other studies using different methodologies that arrive at much the same conclusion.
My opinion on Mexico deaths due to iatrogenic causes is my own "data point". I simply looked at the number of iatrogenic deaths (verified drug related) in Mexico, and then related that number to the population. Same for the USA. The percentage of deaths number to the population number show Mexico has slightly fewer deaths than America in that regard.
Frankly I was surprised it was even close, Mexico does not rely nearly as heavily on drug therapy as the US does. I expected the percentage of drug related iatrogenic deaths in Mexico to be MUCH less than the USA, not just slightly less. The higher than expected number in Mexico may be due to less stringent control of bad drug interaction's or poor drug quality control in general.
