Negligence is hard to prove. Funny how medical people are responsible until they're not because the patient was really the one making decisions. And every legal jurisdiction has gatekeepers for lawsuits. If you can't convince them something went wrong, no attorney will take the case. I suppose they have standards, but anything that made a stab at standard care is a pass. Medicine helps you until it doesn't.
