FATAL PROBESynopsis
There is a real possibility that an otherwise healthy woman can walk into a doctor's office for her annual pelvic exam, and walk out infected with a deadly disease. The health provider may not be breaking any laws, recommended procedures or 'Standard of Care', but the outcome is just as lethal.
The cause of this danger can be isolated to one specific possibility: the widespread use of non-sterile medical devices and procedures during highly invasive, gynecological examinations, a practice officially sanctioned by the AMA and permitted by the federal government through guidelines and rules published by the CDC and FDA.
A March 01, 1999 article in Newsweek correctly reported, "Tens of thousands of the medical instruments used in highly invasive procedures are not intended to be sterilized." However, the focus of the story was limited to endoscopes, which are only the tip of this contaminated iceberg and did not consider the unregulated, 110 million annual gynecological exams.
During these yearly exams an estimated 6.6 million U.S. women are being cross-infected with life-threatening pathogens: i.e. HIV, HCV, HBV, CJD, HPV (cervical cancer), unnerving and troublesome yeast infections or one of a number of other infectious/contagious diseases.
This conclusion was reached as the result of an in-depth, six-year review of over 400 studies and articles; discussions with hundreds of medical professionals and patients; the valuable contribution of an internationally recognized microbiologist; and the wisdom of a world renowned infectious disease physician.
It is truly shocking that this horrific national atrocity has not been previously recognized.
The medical community justifies the reality by saying, "There is no need to use sterile instruments during the examination of non-sterile areas of the body because the area is already non-sterile and body cavities are encased in intact, mucous membranes; therefore, high-level disinfection is adequate."
Over a decade ago, the U.S. dental profession was forced to stop the use of non-sterile devices, which were shown to be the probable cause of HIV cross-infections. It is time to initiate policies to protect the health of U. S. women who undergo these 110 million gynecological procedures every year.

Description
The Tales of the Late Ivan Petrovich Belkin were written at the village of Boldino during the months of September and October, 1830. Pushkin's three-month residence in this village, the famous "Boldino autumn," is considered the most productive epoch in his life. As well as The Tales of Belkin, Pushkin wrote during those three months his "Little Tragedies," "The Small House at Kolomna," "The History of the Village of Goryukhino," a score of shorter poems, a series of critical and polemical essays, and finsihed his long poem, Evgeni Onegin.With The Tales of Belkin Pushkin started what was a new epoch in Russian literature, introducing into Russian prose realistic and democratic trends.
For the first time the common man, his everyday life, his tastes, joys and sufferings, the essential tragedy of his existence in a world of social injustice, were shown in literature.
For the first time simple, clear narrative was substituted for high-flown description, far-fetched comparisons, and pompous metaphors quite alien to Russian speech, while colloquial dialogue and opular idiom acquired immense significance, lending freshness and resilience to the language.
