Not quite, but we're getting there! Some people tried new methods on people who had heart attacks and instead of the average rate of survival at 15% of people, they managed to save 80% of the people they worked on.

I don't know about you guys, but this is something that makes me happy.

*wags tail*

Very cool article... that's a bit more believable than the one my ex-b/f showed me that said basically that men need to see "babylons" (as Rasta used to say) on a daily basis in order to have a healthy, happy heart. What a load of bollox.

Guys don't need to, it just stimulates body activity. It's like a very, very light workout. In other words, it doesn't *need* to be done. At all. lol.

I can already hear debates in the future on wither this is right or not and when death begins..

We've already been attempting to resuscitate people after they've stopped breathing and discovered that most of the time we're just killing them.

Thusly, I think that there won't be any discussion over this broad subject, just only on individual cases. :)
