        Yeah. And it’s a huge problem in the developing world.

        A gynaecologist I used to work with from time to time dedicated her whole retirement to it - she operated hundred of cases per year until she physically could not do it anymore,then she spent another two years teaching in various places until she could no longer do that anymore as well. (By then she was well into her 80ies). She was a saint basically, but without the whole Christian stuff (she had a massive hatred for the church and especially mother Theresa)
