MORE BOTCHED CARE AND BAD RECORD-KEEPING BY THE NHS

UK INDEPENDENT: NHS rushes to trace women given faulty pregnancy tests
Thousands of women may have been exposed tofaulty pregnancy tests that wrongly indicate they are not having a baby, The Independent has learnt.

Up to 50 hospitals across the country are seeking to trace women who may be unaware they are pregnant because of a faulty batch of the Clearview HGC test.

There are believed to be 44 potentially erroneous tests but tens of thousands of women may have been given the product in the past three months before the problem was spotted.

The NHS is unsure which women received the faulty tests and one general hospital is seeking to alert 1,400 women. Tracing the women is important in case they endanger their baby by drinking heavily or by engaging in other unsuitable activity or behaviour.
THE NHS SUCKS. JUST ASK A BRIT.

IF IT DOESN'T WORK THERE, THEN WHY SHOULD WE DO IT HERE!? IT MAKES NO SENSE. YET EVERY SINGLE DEM CANDIDATE FOR THE PRESIDENCY WANTS TO "UNIVERSALIZE" HEALTHCARE AT THE TAXPAYERS EXPENSE.

DON'T FALL FOR IT.

It is relatively easy to cite horror stories of any healthcare system you want to focus on. In the USA alone, there are 250,000 deaths each year from iatrogenic (health-care treatment-related) causes.

It is also relatively easy to download an 2000 AMA paper entitled,"Is US Health Care Really the Best in the World?"

(you have to register for it)

They compared 13 countries, and in their words, "Countries in order of their average ranking on the health indicators (with the first being the best) are:
- Japan
- Sweden
- Canada
- France
- Australia
- Spain
- Finland
- the Netherlands
- the UK
- Denmark
- Belgium
- The USA (finally)
- ...and Germany

this study was bogus and slanted to universality.

it is as valid as the lancet iraq death report - which is to say it is BOGUS.

all you have to do is read what the natives in canada and cuba and the UK and france say about theiur healthcare - and note that it is un-affordable entitlement to know we should not go down that route.

but YOU david... NEVER EVER disappoint little loyal leftie you: i predicted to my budd's you would reply with that bogus report.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!

in the uk and cuba and denmark they ration care and routinely deny procedures to old people which we do not do.

our survival rate for every major disease is better than the wjhole friggin list.

cancer, heart attacks etc.

in the UK old folks are routinely denied surgery and often fly outside the uk to pay for it themselves.

castro flew in someone from spain.

open your eyes.

if you search this site under the label; NHS you will find DOZENS and DOZENS of stories from the beeb and other UK MSM which detail the FAILURES of their system.

it might be the biggest issue in the upcoming election there.

wake up and see the reality, dave.

buhbyee!

you troll.
