My view is that as a free health service, the NHS is one of the best in the world.
Eurgh, Taiwan made it compulsory to wear masks on public transit now.
I've only had it on for 10 mins and it's already irritating me, really hard to breath and it really heats up.
I can see why UK people are resisting wearing them.
The amount of broken stuff and things that date back to the 70s 80s and 90s is shocking.
Broken is pretty much not fit for purpose.Never did I say anything was not ‘fit for purpose’
I didn't make this assumption.your assumption that we have the best kit in the world.... we don’t.
There is a marked difference between the two.I've never seen any evidence of anyone having better medical kit than the NHS.
This obviously includes your own, otherwise you'd be more accurate, you don't need to make assumptions about what has been written when it's there in a post in plain sight and contradicting ones self is never a base for a sound discussion.I do enjoy how people’s agenda’s twist and turn on these forums as people get challenged.
Was it really, I assume you will of course explain the difference between the different beds used in the NHS, I'm particularly interested in the electric ICU beds and how they'd work when the power goes off, but you'd know how the generators back up vital systems which electric beds aren't.because in your last post you made comments about the types of beds being used in the nightingale hospital, which are just not correct
Face masks (as in dust masks) provide minimal protection to the wearer (1) because they do not seal against the outside air, (2) uncomfortable so user loosens them, (3) dirt, bugs and viruses build up and concentrate on the outside so user gets exposed to concentrated toxic crap.
Broken is pretty much not fit for purpose.
OK you made a statement. The context of your statement is that no one else has better equipment than the NHS. Obviously this is not true, hence my comment about NHS patients having to travel abroad for treatments. We buy the same kit in the UK as other hospitals buy abroad. Many heath care equipment companies are german. Siemens is very good at making the CT scanners you talked about. Go look up what a german hospital looks like for kit and equipment. The way the german health care system is funded they spend more than twice what we do in the UK.I didn't make this assumption.
I made this statement.
There is a marked difference between the two.
You assumed I wrote something, even though what I had written is readily available in a previous post, when I actually made a statement of not seeing evidence.
I provided anecdotal evidence. Feel free to look it up.The correct response if you disagreed would be to supply the evidence if it existed, not make an incorrect assumption I wrote something else.

ICU beds are manual for a reason, they are quick and easy to fold flat under any condition, with or without power, but to highlight this further, the Nightingale will have 4000 beds spread over 100,000 square metres, that's a lot of unnecessary plugs and leads to set up and trip over, but you state they should be top of the range electric ones (can you describe one, I've never heard a bed called this were I work) but offer no explanation why, yet you are prepared to question others.
Thanks for telling me what I meant in my statement, though you are wrong.OK you made a statement. The context of your statement is that no one else has better equipment than the NHS.
I didn't write one thing then contradict it later, I only pointed it out, I'm sure it was obvious to others as well and that's hardly tit for tat,

I-me have never seen (with my own eyes) evidence of anyone having better kit than the NHS and still haven't.
My mum used to love kippers for breakfast, never could get my head round that. Used to quite like the continentals with their salamis, hams and fresh rolls but now I'm strictly a porridge or weetabix man - Special K if I'm feeling guilty about eating too much!FFS I'm still having kippers for breakfast tomorrow.....
My view is that as a free health service
I can see why UK people are resisting wearing them.
if you crash your car and the insurance fix it do you call that free? would you be happy of instead of using new parts they just told the bodyshop to use filler and rattle cans?
