British Heart Foundation says no kissing, just hard CPR

The British Heart Foundation is urging people to forget "mouth-to-mouth" and to concentrate on chest compressions when performing CPR. It has been seen that many feel worried about the idea of giving the kiss of life. Experts from the foundation now recommend that anyone who does not have CPR training should ignore the kiss of life in favour of hard and fast compressions in the centre of the chest. Source: BBC
