We need a global war on careerism
Major university hospitals in Tokyo have received a barrage of bomb threats linked to demands that medical schools increase their admissions, a news report and authorities said Monday....
A police official, speaking on condition of anonymity in accordance with official practice, confirmed a link between the school admissions and the bomb threats, adding that the letters were similarly phrased and appeared to come from the same author or authors.
"Unless the number of admissions to medical schools is doubled next year, there will be a large-scale terrorist attack," Kyodo quoted a typical letter as saying.
Apparently, it is never too early to administer the Hippocratic Oath to an aspiring doctor.
