When seatbelts were first introduced, people hated them. Drivers cut them out of their cars. Talk radio hosts mocked them as “nanny state nonsense.” Legislators warned about “government intrusion.” Some doctors even claimed seatbelts could trap passengers or cause injury. Yet today, that simple nylon strap has saved over 375,000 lives in the U.S. since 1975, and a thousand lives annually in Canada. […]
Hospital at Home: The Next Frontier in Canada’s Healthcare Reform
