You may well have a good point there, but it's a different one from people being stupid enough to believe a claim that is patently not true.rick_chasey said:

I don't think anyone really understands what it means when they say it. It just sounds generally like it might be bad, so it gets traction.Stevo_666 said:

My local hospital is sh1t, the one 6 miles away is sh1t. It has been decided that they will pour money into the sh1t hospital 4.5 miles away. My local hospital will lose some services but they will invest in polyclinics so you don't have to traipse to hospital for x-rays and minor ops.
This is a good thing but the emotional outpouring is unbelievable.0 -

I agree with you by the way, and so will anyone who has lived in, for example, Germany or Canada. (not the US, god no)0 -
I've had mixed experiences, the service provided when we really needed it for my daughter was excellent but it still relied in part on additional support services provided by charity. However, I do agree regarding the way it is off limits to criticise it in principal and that doing so will get you accused of wanting to 'sell it off' or that in criticising the institution you are somehow insulting those that work in it (even though many of those are critical). It is now over 70 years old, expectations of what it should provide have changed as has the medical science and whilst it will have undergone near constant tinkering what is really required is a full review to make it as cost effective as possible in providing the services expected of it but no Party will go there as they'll get accused of trying to privatise it if they do.rick_chasey said:

The main problem with the NHS is the public's view that every health complaint shall be treated to some form of international gold standard without realising there is an overall budget. The next problem is the complete lack of accountability between what personal choices people make and the resulting impact on this health budget. The NHS can't provide drugs at 60k a month to give an individual a few more weeks of life anymore than it can treat diabetes on mass that was entirely avoidable for a high number of sufferers. What we save on the good bits such as efficiency from scale and control of the market we loose from people behaviours to the fact it is free at the point of use.0

I would suggest the bold bit is an ideological position and not necessarily a practical one, and people will feel differently about it depending on where they sit on the individual freedom vs collective responsibility spectrum.john80 said:The main problem with the NHS is the public's view that every health complaint shall be treated to some form of international gold standard without realising there is an overall budget.

If we said 20k, we're probably underestimating much worse than you did in your original estimates of how many would die in the first few weeks. But that's for another thread.coopster_the_1st said:

If you take the original death estimates, which were more like 250000, then you arrive at a more modest £750k per person. Not including the costs to deal with the health crisis that we would have incurred under that scenario. And that's assuming that imperials numbers (which at the time were predicting 20k deaths with lockdown, rather than the 45k we've had) are in the right ball park.0 -
I have in the back of my mind a figure of the value attributed to a UK life by the UK gov't and it's something like £1m or around there. Can't remember where I read it now.First.Aspect said:

Yeah I think in the CBAs of various safety schemes and the like if it's more than £1m per head it's not good value. I think it's more complicated than that, but that's the idea.First.Aspect said:

I'm trying to remember the TV interview, with Cecil Parkinson, I think, ooh, probably 35 years ago, following some UK rail disaster... whoever the minister was, he was asked why the UK didn't install the same safety system they have in Switzerland, and the response was that it would cost something like £2m per life saved, but road safety measures cost about £80k per life saved, at that time. It was obviously bolstering the argument that roads deserved all the investment, but I was interested at the time that such figures were calculated.0 -

In road safety the cost per fatal casualty has been calculated at just under £2 million but that includes things like lost productivity while the road is closed for investigation. Of course, for the non-sociopathic members of society the thought of accepting £2 million in return for having a loved one taken away would be reprehensible (but others aren't worth as much).rick_chasey said:

Oh that's a relief. I have cost the NHS something iro £650k so does that mean there's a bit of loose change for any future treatment?rick_chasey said:
Yeah I think in the CBAs of various safety schemes and the like if it's more than £1m per head it's not good value. I think it's more complicated than that, but that's the idea.
That'd be about two nights in a maternity ward in the US, so don't get pregnant and have a baby there. Get back to the UK if you possibly can.
a) have no intentions of going to the US and
b) I have no intentions of getting pregnant.
But thank you for the sage advice.0
