A factor influencing British deaths is surely the meltdown of the NHS. Going to emergency doesn't mean they will see you, and the wait for a doctor's appointment has become ludicrously lengthy.
I enjoyed Dr John's interview by Russell Brand which happened just before the latter was fired upon.
Oh 100%... they're completely overloaded, even in the emergency departments. I broke my wrist just last week (playing footy - serves me right lol) and the wait was 3 and 1/2 hrs. Go back 5 years or so and it would have been half that max. Would say it's a mixture of factors with mass jabbing playing a solid part too - adverse events, immunocompromisation, etc.
Empathy. I broke my wrist, once upon a time in comical fashion that nevertheless made me cry for weeks after the operation whilst blogging. But that got me the use of my fingers back. That was in South Africa, where good care is rarely available to us poor folk. But I was in the right place with great people at the right time.
In the UK, I have a 30-year-old relative who's on welfare owing to her medical condition which has made her an experiment. She visited emergency last weekend. After hours, a doctor saw her to tell her that she wouldn't be seen that day. She left, and returned to hospital the next day, and was seen. Coincidentally, I had paused the movie I had just started when the phone rang. The screen was showing the title, 'No One Will Save You' (PS. not as good as the genre defying 'Spontaneous' but the wacky ending was fantastic and thought-provocative).
