After visiting the summit in Italy, we know that the USA is determined on reduction of preterm births to year 2010 in half almost. Program “Healthy People 2010” is cultivated for this purpose. Nowadays there are 12% preterm births in the USA. It is sufficiently much in comparison with Europe. But it is honest. At the same time we would like to help American specialists and women and offer our methods of treatment. It is very difficult to reduce the amount of preterm births in half even with the help of big money injections. But it is simple if officials get down to business, officials who are capable of presenting the desired for actual for government. As it is in Russia for instance. Our officials have reduced these indices to 4.5-5% (fictitiously, unfortunately) that is why all the offers on improvement of treatment are ignored if they go from independent scientists. Believe us, repeated attempts to publish our results in the leading Russian and Moscow scientific journals were in vain. It is too sad that it happens in the country where the birth rate is lower than mortality. It can be said without ceremony that contemporary obstetrics in Russia is the territory of aggressiveness. American scientists showed that violence over new-born children (deprivation from mother at least) was a source of future violence in the society including terrorism. Once in the 19th century young and devoted to the truth Hungarian doctor-obstetrician Semmelweis made up his mind to give a dare to scientific authorities by saying that inflammation and sepsis dangerous for lives of mothers and new-born children were the consequence of hospital – acquired infection (though learning about microbes was not worked out yet). Due to his discovery he paid with his career and life, probably. The fact which was obvious for any honest Hungarian midwife was incomprehensible for scientists in the middle of the 19th century in spite of persevering attempts of Semmelweis to inform that day world scientific elite about his learning. Probably, philosopher Nietzsche was right confirming that convictions of scientists were more dangerous foes of truth than lies. Scientists would like to throw down other authorities but not everyone has spiritual powers to agree with a judgment of French writer Romain Rolland that invariable truth is a lie. Believe us our powers are coming to an end. We are tired of constant struggles with misunderstanding and human envy. Due to our persevering desire to “to inspire truth to the world”, as esteemed in Russia writer Jack London had used to say, I lost the position of the Head of Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Perm State Medical Academy, though my scientific works in the field of study and treatment of widely-spread woman disease (endometriosis) were famous and valued throughout the world since the eighties, and the doctor dissertation of my husband M.V. Shvetsov was failed twice. We understand that it is a payment for devotion to the truth. And it is more painful as we have devoted ourselves to serving not steel mechanisms and trade but serving human life appearing. One of the books by M.V. Shvetsov (in the Russian language) on the problem of life on the Earth and organic evolution has been kept in the Library of the USA Congress since 1993. — 28 —
