The problem of people dying from both ritual and physician performed circumcision is covered in education and training systems, fairy stories and anecdotal nonsensical urban myths, so that a culture of cover up, denial and acceptance in the event of this is inculcated from childhood in the fantastical stories, myths and false notions taught. http://www.ascentofsafed.com/cgi-bin/ascent.cgi?Name=515-04
Mothers Against Circumcision http://www.mothersagainstcirc.org/ are seeking to counter the false information and myths.

Regarding the above link-People might wonder why a devout religious person would be wanting to teach atheist and other youngsters. If of any use, school is for academic education primarily. The grim reality is kids could be got at in all sorts of sinister ways by teachers of faith with twisted agendas. In a true secular state teachers of zero religion are appropriate. Even if some of the students are religious, the important thing is that they be free from that at school,so they dont get railroaded into religious bigotry.
How unfortunate that far from this, some teachers are so devout they need religious breaks to middle eastern countries. Religious events being what they are, a cautious parallel may be drawn between pilgrimage and terrorist training camp events in that they are intended to inspire more fervent devotion in the attendee. Why would the State wish to bless these?
