A couple of months ago I heard a sincere young lady on TV news show announce that a new medical breakthrough offered people a 20% chance of not dying. Really? To give her credit, she did come back, after the commercial break and explained that she meant to say 20% chance of not dying from a particular disease.
This morning, a sincere young announcer (on the same news show - I like hopeful news) announced that yet another medical breakthrough now assures a 50% lower chance of dying! Really???? So far no effort to correct that statement so I'm starting to get my hopes up....
