This is fine but then the system should run without IMGs. Creating a two tier system with IMgs for service and local grads for training is not acceptable.

Healthy newborns are born with an LDL level of 70.5 +/- 23.9 mg/dl.

Newborns aren't dying of heart attacks despite their LDL.
What changes?
Inflammatory damage to the arteries - caused by lifestyle. Then and only then do plaques form.
The continued pathologising of normal physiology whilst ignoring underlying causes is extremely concerning.
