Think vaccines are dangerous? I have a plant in my garden. It's common and can be eaten safely. But if you sit under it for 5 mins you WILL be dead. It's a water Lilly. Vaccines save lives. Why else would they be free? They save money.

@electricalstuff259 they are in England. I can choose to have one or not.

@electricalstuff259 I've been very unwell since birth. My current 6 weekly treatments alone cost thousands. I pay a pittance in tax. People who are unable to work due to infirmity, age etc pay nothing. Is it a perfect system? No. But it's better than having a couple of super carriers. I'm no fan of the welfare state. But having free access to universal healthcare is worth the cost. The UK population overwhelmingly supports the NHS and we live in a representative democracy. So all is well that ends well.

@electricalstuff259 and how much would that cost in France? I tried to work out what my healthcare would have cost. I got as far as being 16 and it was north of £10m and that was just basic rounding of cost of a night in hospital. A guess at physio sessions and medications. Bupa and admiral wouldn't cover me. The NHS does. Is it perfect?... No. But it's excellent. As for how long things take. It's called triage, without it you'd die of a bleeding ulcer while people were given a bandage for a broken nail.

@electricalstuff259 I've never had a bad word to say. that's in 30 years of needing the NHS to be able to walk and at this point I wouldn't be alive without the care I've received. All of which has been perfect. I suppose if I really wanted to be picky. I don't like the tea bags they use. Perhaps you've just went to a poor hospital.

@electricalstuff259 well we shall agree to disagree.
