TheLondonGuardian on Chief Medical Officer at MedStar Washington Hospital Center Dr. Janis M Orlowski on Washington navy yard doctor calls gun violence the 'evil in our society': The most senior clinician at a hospital that treated victims of the Washington navy yard shooting has become a rallying point for gun campaigners, calling on Americans to eradicate the "evil in our society" that led to th...e tragedy.

"I would like you to put my trauma center out of business," Janis Orlowski, chief medical officer at MedStar Washington Hospital Center, told reporters in the aftermath of the massacre. "I would like to not be an expert on gunshots. Let's get rid of this. This is not America."

In an emotional address to the cameras, she added: "We just cannot have, you know, one more shooting with, you know, so many people killed. We've got to figure this out. We've got to be able to help each other."
