*note: If you can suggest some serious links for these areas, please let me know. The main priorities are to make the links really useful and the instructions very easy to follow. The emphasis should be on practical advice and sensible information. First Aid.
There are some interesting things going on here... one of them is CAMNet (where paramedics are connected directly to doctors).
At the moment, the 'Health' and 'Drugs' sections (see below) contain the major internet 'link' sites. Of course the 'Morgue' is also a lively spot (file under: sick humor!).
