So to summarize... Men, stop riding motorcycles Women, stop having kids That last one might have some detrimental effects long term though. So while men are taking risks, women take one for the team

Also worth noting that it is only looking at percentages. If you rendered the size of the blue and red bars based on total admissions, all you'd see is a bunch of red until you zoomed in very closely.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

another thing: this article seems to presume "it's bad to be in hospital" ...but that's really going to mess up with general health policy (vaccination, checkup-visits, etc)

These things wouldn't be classified as hospital admissions.

"Supervision of normal pregnancy" seems to fall into this category, doesn't it?

What a ridiculously sexist thing to even dare say out loud. The most male-dominated category is "fall from scaffolding." Men aren't up there for fun.

They built the roof that shelters you and your family when it storms.
