Negative Positive
Title: Violates medical research
Review: Current medical research advises not use this kind of kit. Just google for "snake bite mayo clinic" or look at any reliable medical source post year 2000 to get the most current first aid instructions.Update: The 2009 American Red Cross First Aid course and certification specifically advises to:* never cut a snake bite* never to apply suction to a snake bite...which means you wouldn't be using this kitInstead do the following:* Call 911 (or local emergency services) as soon as possible* Wash the bite* Keep the limb low* Try to keep heart rate down, by carrying victim if necessary* Only apply a compressive bandage if a coral snake was at fault (coral snakes are found in the deep south from Louisiana to South Carolina including Florida)And recognize that only 5 of 7000 snake bites a year are fatal, and it's usually not backcountry hikers who are bit.
