What a bunch of hooey! First no mammograms, no PSAs and then no EKGs for physicals! Yet the next day an article came out on how EKGs for the elderly save many lives.

Soon they will suggest no physical at all, if you are "healthy" yet you won't KNOW YOU AREN'T HEALTHY without the blood tests!

America, you are so screwed...
