Have high schools teach "mini-med school": human anatomy, physiology, and disease basics (diabetes, hypeternsion, etc.).

Created by F.S. on March 23, 2013

As a physician, I am dismayed every day by people's lack of medical knowledge, particularly regarding the importance of treatment of diseases that are initially asymptomatic, such as diabetes and hypertension, and for preventitive care, such as colon cancer screening. This should be addressed early in high school.
