I'm starting to suspect this country has a tendency for disregarding human life. Seems the greater good (king, country and medical careers) outweighs the lives of a few measely individuals. There need to be consequences for the failed safeguards (coroners, regulators, police).

The greater good is a concept that's been used to hide a million sins, best I can tell. Convince a person that they are acting for the greater good and they will do things they would consider unthinkable under normal circumstances. Dangerous in the wrong hands

Drs put value on each of us according to their personal values + beliefs. Sanctity of life ignored

It's a scary thought, isn't it? Only made more scary when you consider some of the attitudes that were dragged out from under the slimy medical rock during the
#bawagarba debate. Many values and beliefs on display did not match mine!!1 reply 0 retweets 2 likes -

Agree and my kid was treated like scum because drs thought she was mh. No surprise that so many mh patients die early

Even when they realised she wasn't, 2 hospitals' drs were perfectly happy to sacrifice her + us to protect themselves.

I remember the first time someone told me a story like that - where a patient was sacrificed to save the reputation of a doctor. I couldn't believe it back then - now I barely break stride when I hear it. As I've said before, ignorance really was bliss in many ways.

Yes, on balance I'd rather know so I can protect myself/loved ones. I don't enjoy living life with a sense of having to 'watch my back' though. Only ever had to worry about corporate sharks previously, but they weren't that clever & you could always walk away - unlike healthcare.
