Professor David Patrick Southall OBE is a British paediatrician, who in 2004 was found guilty of misconduct by the General Medical Council after falsely accusing a man of murder.
EDITOR-In their editorial Southall et al highlight several important issues concerning children and armed conflict.1 However, their assertion that civilians account for 90% of casualties from recent conflicts is difficult to accept.
Southall et al rightly point out that advocacy is a powerful tool available to the profession.
Dear Sir, Professor Southall`s leading article, (1), outlining the devastating effects on child health from armed conflict is welcomed, as is the global prospective he encourages.
