Sorry my slippery friend, but this really has nowt to do with our social healthcare and everything to do with the mockery that is the recent govermant debacle of the pig flu helplines. Manned we are told by our news media(if you choose to belive them) not by NHS trained professionals but by out of work teens reading from a propered script. This I put down the effect of news media dictating goverment response and has nothing to do with the NHS.
Not good yes I agree, and a whole differant debate, but nothing what's- so-ever to do with free healthcare at the point of service. Besides if you thought you might possibly be suffering with flu of any kind would you rather pick up the phone or go see your GP?
