Comment: According to a 2008 study in the British Medical Journal, UK doctors voted to restrict medical student entrants into the workforce:


Judging from the short study extract below, whilst this vote was ostensibly to avoid 'devaluing the profession', the allegation that the real concern was that it would result in lower pay seems reasonable. One could conclude that those who partook in this vote share part of the blame for the UK's 'overwhelmed' healthcare system, which, notably, has been considered at crisis levels for many years now, both in terms of staffing and capacity:

Delegates at the annual BMA conference voted by a narrow majority to restrict the number of places at medical schools to avoid "overproduction of doctors with limited career opportunities." They also agreed on a complete ban on opening new medical schools.

David Sochart, from Manchester and Salford, warned that in the current job climate allowing too many new doctors into the market would risk devaluing the profession and make newly qualified doctors prey to "unscrupulous ...

It's worth also bearing in mind that part of this crisis has been manufactured by corrupt government officials who have been working towards privatising the UK's NHS for at least two decades now, and against the wishes of the public:

Comment: The only way to preserve the illusion of pandemics and to impose tyranny over the general population is to use propaganda, fake news, and fear. This is happening on a planetary scale.

The elites don't want to share the news where people are protesting because that will encourage even more people to wake up and protest against tyranny.

It was never about a public health concern, it was always just a mask of their real intentions to impose totalitarian control over humanity.

Comment: Not a moment too soon.

Comment: More damning information from the Daily Mail:

Concerns over prescription-drug dependency are not new. The Committee on Safety of Medicines — a government body set up after the thalidomide scandal of the 1950s — warned back in 1980 that patients given benzodiazepines for anxiety and sleep problems were at risk of becoming dependent on them if they stayed on them for longer than four weeks.

It urged GPs to limit the drugs' use, scrap repeat prescriptions and help patients come off the pills gradually — tapering to smaller doses — to avoid acute withdrawal symptoms.

Dr Davies says: 'Yet, here we are, 40 years later and roughly half of those NHS patients prescribed benzodiazepines have been on them for more than two years.

'It's the easiest thing in the world to prescribe a drug but it can be very difficult to get some people off them.'

Meanwhile, Britain's opioid crisis is starting to mirror that seen in the U.S., where overdoses have claimed more than 500,000 lives since the late-1990s.

Research published a year ago in the journal PLoS Medicine, by experts at Manchester University, found codeine use in the UK had risen five-fold in the previous decade. Prescriptions for opioids tramadol and oxycodone rose too. Latest data show deaths from codeine overdose rose to 212 in England in 2020 (from 156 in 2017); in the past decade codeine poisoning deaths have doubled.

Experts fear increased demand for over-the-counter codeine formulations may be largely to blame, sparking calls for a ban on their direct sale to the public.

Worryingly, the Manchester study showed one in seven first-time users of the painkillers became long-term users, even though it is known to lead to addiction.

Last year, the Medicines and Regulatory Healthcare products Agency — which vets drug safety — introduced stronger labelling for opioid medicines, warning patients they could get addicted and experience unpleasant withdrawal symptoms if they stopped taking it suddenly. The body also says drugs such as tramadol and oxycodone should be limited beyond cancer patients.

The opioid crisis in the U.K. has the same antecedents as America's:

• New study confirms big pharma & federal govt root cause of opioid epidemic
• No stopping the beast: Big Pharma spent nearly 1 billion dollars lobbying for opioid access
• From prescription to addiction: Investigation shows Big Pharma bribed 68,000 doctors to push deadly opioids
• Unsealed documents reveal Big Pharma worked with pain clinics and caused the opioid epidemic
