Umgland... fehGiven UK doctor shortages, what are the odds she can find one within 2 miles?
2 miles?!? THIS is too much of a ‘carbon footprint?’ I do not comprehend how ANYONE can choose to live in such a society. Oh, right, they’ve been disarmed.
Holy crap!
death-by-government.
This may be an example of a caution to some elderly. Some of them tend to become “crusty”, and exhibit bad social behavior. And while they can get away with this with most people, medical people already have a lot of stress, so decide they don’t need the aggravation.
Several things, justified or not, that can tick off doctors include:
1) Hypochondria and demands for unnecessary tests and treatments. Telling the doctor their business.
2) Asking that adult children or friends attend consultations with them (often because they are hard of hearing or are not understanding new information as quickly). Some doctors see this as “ganging up on them”, prior to complaints or even lawsuits.
3) Abrasive personalities.
It often serves as a red flag to an HMO if a patient switches doctors or is handed off more than a time or two. It can get them labeled as troublesome, and the HMO will look to getting rid of them.
There is a general growing disdain for caring for the elderly in the medical community, so if you have elderly relatives, if they must go to the emergency room, be sure they have a younger escort to insure they get prompt and effective care.
Coming to America?
The five most scary words from the government: “We’re concerned for your health”!
This is just absurd. Maybe Al Gore can pay for her medical care with the money he’s made from the carbon credits scam.
We escaped our European roots 250 years ago. Please, let’s keep it that way.
People here have NO IDEA what Nationalized Healthcare is really like. All they hear is ‘free’. Everyone’s taxes will go up 10-20%. You have no control over the care you get. No second opinions, etc. No choice of doctor. Pray the SCOTUS throws the whole thing out!
2 miles is nothing. It’s just an excuse.
Well, she could move closer to the doc!
Goes to show the bottom line of the global warmmists is mass murder...as is usual for Marxists.
Umgland... feh
Oh, wait...
