I doubt there is really any way to know this. Doctor's are treating people who are already sick and injured and who may die with or without their treatment. So who is to say what caused the death there...unless you can prove complete negligence and that is not proven often.
Guns kill perfectly healthy people and at a pretty high rate in the U.S. I'm not anti-gun or anything. I have one in my house.
I really don't think anyone can determine this one.

It could be but what would you rather stitch a new heart into someone, a doctor with a needle and stitches or a doctor with a shotgun.

I can believe it. My husband died because of a misdiagnosis. He was in the hospital for 24 hours before they finally figured it out and by then it was too late.

I have heard that before and I believe it. Practicing doctors make mistakes.
