"free medical treatment to be withheld only from active anti-vaxx campaigners": We know you can't breath but hang on while we check your name is not on Michael W's list! Sounds very practical & ethical. What nonsense. As regards NHS supply & demand it should really be given European levels of funding before there is a national discussion on changing the model. https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/healthandsocialcare/healthcaresystem/articles/howdoesukhealthcarespendingcomparewithothercountries/2019-08-29 But just as important, in a week where China overtakes U.S. for healthy lifespan, there needs to be more resources put into prevention (obviously that includes vaxines) but also education, better sports facilities, healthy school meals, more after school sports classes, higher taxes on junk food and whatever else we can do to get the health of the nation back on track. This is the conversation we should be having. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-lifespan-idUSKCN1IV15L |
