Green Or Blue Scrubs Over White
Why do health care professionals wear blue or green scrubs rather than any other colours? Although white is the color of cleanliness, in the early 20th century doctors switched their scrub’s colour from white to green. It’s been known that green or blue colours are easier on a surgeon’s eyes and help doctors to see better in the operating room due the opposite of red on the color wheel.
Looking at blue or green can refresh a one’s vision of red things, especially during surgery. If a surgeon looks at something red, he becomes desensitized to it. The red colour signal in the brain actually fades, and this could make the surgery difficult. Looking at something green will make the eyes more sensitive to red. By wearing a green scrub, doctors can also eliminate a green illusion of the blood (“after effect” illusion due to red).

Nazi Dr.Death still alive
Heim,an Austrian doctor with Adolf Hitler’s dreaded police unit, the SS,has been on the run for 46 years since evading police in Germany in 1962 prior to a planned prosecution. He is nicknamed Dr Death for killing hundreds of inmates at Mauthausen concentration camp in Austria with injections of petrol or poison direct to the heart. Heim removed organs from victims without anesthetic. He even kept the skull of one man he decapitated as a paperweight. He is likely hiding in southern Chile’s Patagonia region, says leading Nazi-hunter Efraim Zuroff. Hundreds of Nazis sought refuge in Latin America after World War II. Holocaust survivors remember Heim relishing seeing the fear of death in the eyes of his victims.
