#HealthcareProfessionals

My new book calls for government (& commercial insurance) to get out of running our #healthcare system.
It describes how the creation of an independent “National Medical Board” (run by #healthcareprofessionals rather than politicians & insurance executives), based on the #federalreserve Board, can insulate healthcare delivery from politics and special interests.
It's available from most online booksellers, including:

This is a devastating photo of the family grieving at the coffin of a 2-day-old baby, who was murdered in a Russian missile strike on a hospital In Vil'nyans'k, Zaporizhzhia Oblast. On the night of 23rd November Russians fired at the hospital, destroying the maternity ward. In addition to the dead baby, two doctors were injured and the mother had to rescued from the rubble.

There are no words. I cannot imagine the parents' pain.

A tint open coffin lies on a low table covered with a yellow and black cloth. You can see the baby's face in the coffin wearing a white hat and covered by a silky blanket with white lace. There is white lace lining the coffin. It is in a graveyard and you can see the gravestones in the background. Behind the Coffin is a distraught woman who looks like she is collapsing to the ground. She is being held by two women, who also look very upset. Behind people look on, crying. There is a traditional Ukrainian grave wreath with white flowers to one side near a grim-faced man. The sky is bleak.
