they have lotteries for meds, lotteries to see who gets a local MD to be their care giver, or if they have to travel 45 mins in one direction for their basic care. Dental is NOT on the health care service so many either dont get their teeth fixed or they have them pulled because its so much cheaper. If you go to the ER in London with chest pain, the first thing they give is an antibiotic not asprin. So many hearts are failing because of the bacteria from those festering mouths. You wait months on end if not years on end to see a specialist, (you cant choose which one you want to see) and when you arrive he can simply say "nope, wont help you." and then you are stuck. They pick which DMD is appropriate for you, and you dont get a say so.

They have private clinics that you can go to, but you must pay to go there. Whats the point of paid healthcare if you are not going to get care? or have to go elsewhere to get care? I have friends in Ireland, England, London, Manchester...all of them say the healthcare stinks! The MDs are not listening, and it takes forever to see one of them if you make the lottery.

no wonder they fare worse.
