Lahvlahn: The "Snow Show Like a Joe Show" Edition - 01/03 two-eighteen so to speak

We need to take the "profit" motive out of healthcare.

Somebody tell the food providers, pharma companies, medical device companies, doctors, nurses, hospital builders etc etc etc who profit from it

mountain

Or

i don't know if I would be listening to medical injury lawyer too much on this point, when it is a gravy train for them

It means she is determined to get a (good) few quid out of this

Exactly. It's not as if the State went around deliberately infecting people. These programs are designed to hopefully winkle out the early signs of dangerous disease and I'm shouting at the radio at stupid people who totally fail to grasp the realities of any testing procedure, that there are false results as an absolutely expected part of the outcome.
The only way to be reasonably sure, is get the State-paid test, and get another private one the following year. And keep your fingers crossed both of them are carried out by competent people.

For the second time, this is obviously something he's hatching in the background, double bingo points when it happens .

yip - he was at it yesterday as well

when peoples illnesses are this severe there is zero difference between treatments in public or private. All private does is moves you up the queue for non essential tests.
The boss of VHI was on newtalk business this morning saying the costs of claims has dropped because people are not ticking the "yes I have private" any more as the message is getting out that they get no different treatment 90% of the time when they do this, except the HSE claims e800 a night off the private insurers

"We're still among the wealthiest countries in the world"

We can just about afford you Joseph....

Its an awful story, but honestly, is this the right place for it?

Joe is just trying to tie this into the present issue.

Why don't they name the hospitals etc?

This is the tip of the Iceberg. Wait till the bowel screening f-ups really get the spotlight on them.

You can see the logical outcome of this. Time to scrap all these public screening programmes, if the predictable false results are going to result in big payouts.

The only mitigating factor here with this wall to wall cancer misdiagnosis is that's keeping the dreaded 'A' word off the airwaves.

Christ Almighty what a tale.

All this smear talk and scope talk , im switching off now.

A smear test is very very uncomfortable, but listening to all this talk about it not
pleasant either.

On another note, everyone lawyering up big time here.
Whereas some people deserve it, there will be loads jumping on the bandwagon here with the
greedy compo culture in this country

He loves the word Frame. He thinks it's very clever.

Not even close. We had tears once within a minute of starting the show.

"as far as I know" ???? HUH

what is the question again?

why is Duffy trying to tie these dead women with the tests?
