    Oh Dear: The NHS is not as good as it was

    German Doctors

    #2
    30% of Doctors in the NHS got their training from overseas (France and Germany the figure is 5%).

    Some Sub-Saharan African countries are desperate for staff

    From news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/4100892.stm

    Last month, UK doctors warned in the Lancet that the UK was crippling sub-Saharan Africa's healthcare system by poaching its staff.

    BMA chairman James Johnson said the consequences of poaching on the developing world were "absolutely catastrophic".

    "There are large areas of Africa where there are no health workers of any kind," he told BBC Radio 4's Today programme.

    "The countries of the developed world have helped themselves liberally to doctors and nurses from the developing world for very many years."

          Dear Zathras999,

          Gobal economy at its best. It is good and right we poach 3rd world countries medical staff, leaving their people to die in agony, so that the government here can save money on staff wages, and send the savings to Africa as aid, to prevent the people of Africa from dying in agony due to medical shortages. It's only fair and sensible.

          Yours,

          Tony Blair.
