At least 1,200 veterans across the country have been mistakenly told by the Veterans Administration that they suffer from a fatal neurological disease.Just a coding error, folks. No need to panic. You were only told you were dying. Don't get so disgruntled over a little thing like your life. Considering the big picture, individuals are expendable. What's the loss of 1,200 veterans, anyway? That just means more for the rest of us.
One of the leaders of a Gulf War veterans group says panicked veterans from Alabama, Florida, Kansas, North Carolina, West Virginia and Wyoming have contacted the group about the error.
Denise Nichols, the vice president of the National Gulf War Resource Center, says the VA is blaming a coding error for the mistake.
Starting to see a problem, yet?
