NURSES RANK HIGHER THAN DOCTORS IN HONESTY. GALLUP POLL 2012.

In a recently published gallup poll survey conducted in USA from Nov 26-29 2012, across 50 states + Washington DC, telephone interviewing 1015 respondents, nurses rank higher than doctors for honesty and ethical standards. The nurses scored 85%, while pharmacist scored 75% and doctors share join third with engineers at 70%.
The question asked was, 







Very interesting. And this is not the first time. Apparently, nurses have been outscoring doctors since 1999 and have always ranked No 1, except for year 2001 with the 9/11 catastrophy.





Well, the gallup poll survey is certainly food for thought. Not only nurses out rank us this year, but also pharmacist. They are at number 2 this year. ( Just to add salt to the wound ).

The only saving grace ( if there is any ), is that politicians rank amongst the lowest, next to car salesperson.
I wonder what would be the ranking if this survey were carried out in Malaysia. Where would we stand?
