Not funny as I read it.

Who does not have a nightmare tale about his or a friend's or a family member's recent hospital experience in USA? A Naples, Florida hospital admitted my brother to its ER for a minor infection and discharged him as a brain-dead quadraplegic 3 weeks later. They tried to kill him twice with indifference before they actually killed him with incompetence.

Professional and record-keeping fraud and deceit covered it all up. No foul, no harm was their attitude.

The system is not failing; it's not breaking.

It's broken.

The medical profession proved the obvious with its unforgivable failures during the China Virus pandemic.

When my 10 year old child broke her leg the NHS refused to send an ambulance. I had to drive her 15 miles to A&E. Traumatic is the correct word for that journey. We were seen by triage and eventually an eye specialist turned up. Her notes said she had an eye problem! Astounding incompetence and callousness.
