    My girlfriend is a doctor and like half of my friends are doctors. Their near-unanimous view is that the NHS is dying, not because of COVID, but because of a decade plus of underinvestment by governments who just do not give a shit.https://twitter.com/dsquareddigest/status/1450780468723523588 …

    Possibly true, but I worry that you have to start by respecting the problem, and that means being honest that the cause of the NHS crisis at present is not that COVID outcomes have been worse than expected (they've been a lot better than forecasts). It's underinvestment. https://twitter.com/HugoGye/status/1450583007182602245 …

        - Nurses treated like shit - Junior doctors treated like shit - Immigrant workers treated like shit - Education/upskilling programs underfunded or cut - Pay repeatedly frozen (or sneakily reduced by cutting pensions) 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

        The impression I get from my friends is not enough managers and support.

        NHS has difficulty dealing with capacity in normal times, of course Covid has exacerbated it. Its underinvestment over a decade combined with absolutely horrendous administration.

        Anecdotal experience of going to an NHS doctor after going to private doctors for years: it sucked (a lot). On the plus side, I didn't died.

        Practically every private consultant in the UK is an NHS one as well, they are literally the same people (apart from certain specialities where there is no private market). What's different is number of nurses, midwives and overall resources and support.

        Replying to @macrocephalopod

        Medicine a tough market to make finding: customers (patients) don't exactly know what they need (imagine if govt. agency distributed cars), very fat tails of costs (catastrophic care), smart people (hospitals/docs) ready to soak up any government spending, misaligned incentives.

        Agree that NHS sounds pretty horrendous at the moment.
