The situation on hospital waiting lists for public patients is now so farcical that people are being offered appointments two years away. The waiting list for tonsils operations in Crumlin Children's Hospital is now two years long. A lot of conditions get much worse while people are waiting for treatment and your teeth would have fallen out by the time you saw a dentist if you waited to see the free one. The recent measles epidemic showed what happens when you penny-pinch about childrens' health. Doctors stopped promoting the measles vaccine because they said they were not getting paid enough to give it and the health boards also stopped promoting it to save money.
Measles can cause brain damage and injure childrens' eyesight.
Petty bureaucracy is obviously more important than peoples health care in this capitalist system. So keep an eye on those health cuts.
