Rat catchers as health providers
It
is a matter of great relief that the Covid-vaccine programme is being
carried out effectively and efficiently. As a ‘most at risk’
person, `and, after receiving my first ‘shot’, I can vouch for this.
That is because the
programme is in the capable hands of the NHS and
rat-catchers and bankrupts are nowhere near the vaccine-operating
centres.
The
British Medical Journalhas
declared that, “The
coronavirus pandemic has unleashed state corruption on a grand scale
that is harmful to public health,” with
£billions
ofCovid-related
contracts given
to companies run by friends or associates of politicians in the Tory
government.
Worst
of all, many were given to companies without any expertise in medical
equipment, provision or practise or
who
were
insolvent or close to being so.
