Bitching because she got expedited service by the NHS ... people wait weeks, months or years to get service from the NHS and there she is bitching after having to only wait 16 hours.

I worked for a bit on a remote island in Indonesia. The locals that I worked with would say something, look at me, and laugh. I asked one of them what was so funny.

“Oh - they call you ‘long pig’”.

I had never hear the term before. I was thinking it was due to my pink skin...

He could see me pondering it.

“Because you taste like pig. But we don’t do that anymore. Well - not here. Some still do out there” as he pointed to the mountains.

Here’s a tip, as a retired RN: if you don’t have a medical professional in your family, cultivate a friendship with one. If possible, always have such an one with you, as an advocate, if you have to be hospitalized. The average non-medical person has no way of knowing if they are getting adequate care, when hospitalized; they just assume the medical staff are expert at their jobs. Sadly, such is not always the case, more so now than ever.

That is not the point. Unfortunately mistakes happen. The point is that this was not a mistake it was a feature of the entrenched failure of a system whose delays and shortages are legion. This is systemic rather than individual malpractice.

Individual evil vs systemic abandonment of the people. Orders of magnitude. A level of cynicism unmached as yet in the USA despite the studied ignorance of what was being done to the world by COVID shot & incorrect treatments.
Fauci is a mass murderer but many aided & abetted. Perhaps it is too late to be horrified by any perfidy? The UK & Canadian systems have been betraying their countrymen for decades while virtue signaling. My anger has been smoldering for most of those years.

“National Health Service” in which the patients are the servants, there to support the mere existence of the government service.
