MASS DEATH BEFORE BLAIR GOVERNMENT HUMILIATION

68,000 Britsh patients dying needlessly each year

SHOCK REPORT Adding to the catastrophic chaos in Britain’s hospitals wards, described by insiders as being worse than Third World standards, it has been revealed that 68,000 people needlessly die in National Health Service hospitals each year as a result of medical blunders. Going to British hospitals is now a cruel form of Russian roulette; as many as one in ten patients can expect something to go seriously wrong with their treatment and nearly a fifth of these will suffer from serious injury.

A study team led by Professor Charles Vincent from the famed University College in London looked at the records of two unnamed major hospitals. From the proportion discovered to be suffering from what has cutely been described as ‘adverse events’ they were able to work out that proportionately 850,000 – nearly a million patients each year – suffer from hospital blunders of whom as many as 68,000 die. These figures have been confirmed by the Department of Health.

GERMAN OFFER OF ASSISTANCE REJECTED

Following an initiative by the Bonn-based Committee for the Promotion of German Medicine Overseas, routed through the German Embassy in London, more than 100 German hospitals have offered to treat Britain’s National Health patients. The offer includes package deals that include flights and expert care by English-speaking medical experts. The costs are comparable, even lower, that the cost of treatment in Britain.

The relief of Britain’s besieged and discredited ‘healthcare system’ could be achieved immediately by the German proposal but the Blair regime has declined assistance. It fears that this would be an admission that Germany’s system of healthcare is superior to Britain’s, which could result in their losing the forthcoming general election. A second term of office it seems will be founded on a holocaust of betrayed hospital victims.

GOVERNMENT WILL NOT ADMIT NHS CANNOT COPE

Britain’s premier black-top tabloid the Daily Mail (2 March 2001) says: "British government ministers will not countenance what amounts to be an admission that the National Health Service cannot cope."

As a consequence tens of thousands of Britons will die because the Labour government finds that preferable to admitting the National Health Service, like its comprehensive school program and other follies, will be exposed as a calamitous social experiment gone wrong.

An anonymous Department of Health spokesman conceded. "We will reply to their letter but we will explain very carefully that the NHS does not want to send any people abroad. We want to recruit their doctors."

Such a reply has been describes as outrageous. Even if this was viable Britain simply hasn’t the infrastructure; the hospitals, beds or equipment to support those German doctors who might be prepared to relocate to England on lower salaries than they enjoy in their own country.

Norway has accepted the German offer and patients are already benefiting. Both NHS and private patients in Britain are now making their own enquiries, aiming to do for themselves what their own government has denied them.
