Could this be why the left desperately wants to control healthcare?

Consequences

quote:

UK National Health Service to Deny Treatment to ‘Racists’ and ‘Sexists’


quote:

“In late 2017 an NHS patient who requested a female nurse to carry out a cervical smear complained when the hospital sent a person with “an obviously male appearance… close-cropped hair, a male facial appearance and voice, large number of tattoos and facial stubble” who insisted “My gender is not male. I’m a transsexual”.

Sort of like the Social score in China....

but here of course its dumb soccer rules where once you get the red card, you're out.

a very slippery slope.... talk about increased and affordable access to healthcare yet denying the very access.

They're talking about patients actually being racist or sexist to the staff.

Would seem to violate medical ethics code to deny care to someone for being rude.

This patient wasn't being sexist. They were being smart:

If I'm a woman and you send in a obviously male nurse and it makes me uncomfortable, darn right I'm asking for a female. I don't care what it identifies as.

Interesting enough the people pushing this are the same ones calling healthcare a right. How can a right be denied? Talk about bait and switch.

1. Take your guns so you can't do anything about it or protect yourself from these "disadvantanged" groups, and

2. Withhold healthcare for "wrong thinking"

3. Wait for the dissidents to die out


This is the left's game plan for the United States.

The Supreme Court of the USA said that healthcare is a right. They can't walk that one back right? They went all the way to the supreme court to make sure they could butt frick America with the ACAbamaCare. It was literally the only time in our nation's history that American Citizens were forced to buy something merely for existing in the USA as a citizen.

You can raise that baby, Dems. Healthcare insurance probably shouldn't be a right protected under the Constitution, but now that it is, we should fight day and night to keep someone from turning it into a weapon to be used against political enemies.

Only one of many reasons.

Sensationalized.

Are they denying care in life-threatening situations? Or are they asking unruly patients to seek treatment elsewhere?

Potential for abuse due to liberal application of racist or sexist? Sure. But c'mon.

Under the scheme, any patient abusing staff would be challenged and warned, leading to a "sports-style disciplinary yellow card" followed by a final red card in which treatment would be "withdrawn as soon as is safe".

Well, this would be one way to ration health care without calling it rationing health care.

And this is exactly why you dont want the government running healthcare.


Healthcare is supposedly a "human right", even murderers in prison get a form of healthcare.
