Has medical rationing already begun? The mammography debate is going nuclear (pun intended) as the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force new recommendations to delay radiating breast tissue until after 50 are met with suspicions of government rationing to come. I will explain why the recommendation to delay mammograms does not go far enough.
Also, The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends that women delay pap smears and get them less frequently. Is this more evidence of rationing to come? Is the delay and reduction good for the health of women or bad? Do they intend to replace more frequent "paps" with Gardasil and Cervarix? Perspective like nowhere else in media coming up.
Thanks for tuning in where there's more healing in two hours than most shows have in a whole year!
