Neurology: A double standard?

A public notice posted on one of the side doors of the Dialysis Clinic informs patients that due to problems with its dialysis solutions, treatments are been put on hold at the LBJ Medical Center, in Fagaalu, American Samoa Friday, June 5, 2015. Residents who require dialysis were in their third day without the vital treatment Friday after a product recall closed their clinic, but so far none have sought emergency medical attention, the U.S. territory's only hospital said. Until Saturday, there are no other options for dialysis patients on the island with a population of about 55,000, roughly 2,300 miles south of Hawaii. (AP Photo/Fili Sagapolutele) (AP)
