A conservative estimate of preventable deaths in year 2011 among Jehovah's Witnesses suffering severe anemia is right at 2,000 souls.
I remember posting a long time ago, that if the number of deaths among JWs for lack of blood transfusions occurred all at once, instead of one at a time, in isolated incidents, the body count would be greater than Jonestown, and the outcry against the practice would be deafening.
918 people - men, women and children - died at Jonestown. We have here a conservative estimate of 2000 preventable deaths in 2011 among JWs. That's more than TWO Jonestowns in a single year.
This has to stop. We have to start making a lot more noise.
