The flu vaccines are working then, destroying the immune systems of the elderly.

My mum had the Feb flu & she's only now getting out and about again. Very nasty, can quite imagine many would not have survived it

A doctor said that going WITHOUT a flu injection is like crossing the road with your eyes closed.

Dreadful case up before the medical council at the minute
consultant dr Vaishnavy Laxman being questioned and fellow doctor Shamila Siddiki giving evidence |

By:
They were working in Ninewells Hospital in Scotland
Now do you know that the Scots have historically been know to have a natural ability , more so than perhaps any other nation , in the field of medicine It may seem a silly thing to say but the doctor in Star Trek was Scottish for this simple reason |

dr mccoy will be born in atlanta in 2227

Beam me up Scotty

It is simple arithmetic. Population has increased dramatically, particularly in England, so more people will die.

sorry the doctor was McCoy Scottish
The engineer was Scotty ...because the Scots were know to be good at engineering as well Medicine and engineering |

mightymac, the arithmetic IS simple.
142,000 Hospital beds now.... down from 362,000 in 1979. So about 60% fewer. Many many hospitals closed. Ambulances cut and centralised. People too far from medical assistance in fewer now overcrowded hospitals. Population up about 15% which doesn't help but isn't the cause. lfc, sorry to try correcting you, what with all your superior knowledge and all, but Dr McCoy was not (will not be) Scottish. |
|
By:
Fair enough getting my doctors and engineers mixed up :)
However the central point is true about the Scots and their natural gifts for medicine and engineering |
|
By:
unless scotland invade and capture atlanta , which is unlikely but will
happen in some parallel universe now it has been mentioned.... |
|
By:
Do you know it is not mere chance that the first man on the moon was Scottish also
They have that sort of brain |

By:
You are correct lfc, regards Scots. Everything worth inventing was invented by Scots. Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin. Others invented Telephone, TV, Vulcanised rubber, Steam engine which revolutionised the world, the list is endless.

By:
…. oh, and US President is Scottish
|
|
By:
haha , don’t mention that !
|
|
By:
You are correct of course Studyform regards NHS cutbacks causing more deaths. No one could argue that, but more people means more deaths caused by said cutbacks

Sir Alexander Grant - Digestive biscuit, lol.
He'd be spinning in his grave if he ate one now they've ruined them imo. |

The irony is, billions of pounds are spent every year in the search for the cure for cancer, but if it was ever found it, it could start the beginning of the end for the human race, the world population would spiral out of control expeditiously, more so than it already is. We invent things that are ultimately self destructive, and we do so without any forethought, and yet we continually celebrate our genius.

I used to love Digestives with a coffee.
Tunnocks make my favourites though Caramel Log, Caramel wafer and Tea Cake. Luvvly jubbly |
|
By:
If a scientist came up with a cure for cancer, he would be bumped off, as it would cost the pharmaceutical companies billions every year.
|
|
By:
Coffee for me too tmm I just fancied one a few weeks ago and they aren't what they were.
Tunnocks Caramel are wafers me old mans' favourites admittedly they're nice but get stuck in ya teeth. |

wafers are *
You're right about Big Pharma evil |

I wonder how those fiqures compere to the U.S ,Australia and New Zealand?

The problem this country now has, is too many people for the public services to handle.
Cheap labour doesn't pay its way with regard to the demands it makes on public services. The more people we import - the more it costs. The complete opposite of what we were told about immigration, which boosts the economy in the short term, then costs us dear in the long term as we can now see. |
|
By:
The NHS is being brought down by people getting free treatment, who can't possibly have paid for it and never will.
|
|
By:
Just wrong. Plainly wrong.
|
|
By:
Not plainly wrong at all. It's plainly obvious.
|
|
By:
It's really not. Importing a lot of fit, well people does not lead to a burden on health services.
Now, maybe in 30 - 40 years you could make that argument but right now it has no legs whatsoever. |

By:
Where a friend of mine works,the forigh ladies and gentlemen don't to the doctors if even the slightest thing is wrong with them,nope they go one and all to the A&E,SO TIMES THAT BY HOW MANY MILLION

By:
If you don't believe your eyes, there's no point in me arguing.
You'll believe what you choose to believe regardless of the facts. |
