"Iraqi medical crisis as doctors flee"
By John Leyne
BBC News, Amman
" For the people of Iraq, it may be the ultimate nightmare.
The ordeal continues for victims of Iraq's violence when they are taken to hospital.
Most of the best medical staff have left after being targeted by insurgents. Many have fled the country just in the last few months.
Drugs and equipment are almost non-existent. The notorious militias target patients inside hospitals, and doctors inside the health ministry.
All this in a country that used to pride itself on the best medical services in the Middle East. "
