"Even so, Philadelphia officials believe their educational efforts are
warranted. City Health Commissioner John Domzalski said even a few deaths
are enough to warn against bed-sharing."

Um...how many children die due to sleeping in cribs? I haven't heard anyone
telling us to toss out cribs immediately because "even a few deaths are
enough to warn against crib-sleeping". It's so interesting how we see
everything through our own lens, and don't questions things because they
seem so obvious (to these writers, crib sleeping is the norm, so why would
they worry about the safety of it)?
