do you realize how stupid that is? where are you from, Las Vegas right? there were probably 500 people in Las Vegas who were put under general anesthesia today in hospitals and clinics. and you actually think that close to 100 people died today due to general anesthesia? maybe in 1911 not 2011.

not sure of the numbers but they are far larger than almost 2 in 1000.
