Exactly what is your point? As usual you try to paint NHS as inferior while totally ignoring our system and it’s many deficiencies. That is wrong and deceitful and frankly goes against evidenced based practice and everything the medical profession is supposed to stand for.
From our wonderful system:

“Illinois Woman Dies after 22-Minute Ambulance Wait”

“A family has sued the District for failing to respond quickly to a medical emergency, saying that it took an ambulance about 90 minutes to pick up a relative who later died.”
