Death Panels are a myth, correct?

this is a story from the UK, but will more or likely be the end result of Government Health Caree in Canada and the US also, without the availability of private Health Care insurance.

Life-extending cancer drugs 'rationed by postcode': Dozens of hospitals refuse to hand out treaments

Hospitals are denying patients the latest life-extending cancer drugs, a report reveals.

Dozens of trusts are failing to hand out treatments for bowel, ovarian, lung and brain cancer that have been approved by the NHS watchdog NICE.

Some of these drugs have been shown to boost survival rates by a quarter while others have extended the lives of terminally-ill patients by over a year.

The report - commissioned by the Department of Health - also reveals that many hospitals are failing to prescribe the latest treatments for heart attacks, asthma, multiple sclerosis, arthritis and Crohn’s Disease.

In fact some of the drugs were approved for use by NICE more than seven years ago.

That's right in line with what commander zero said during his first election run. Since the cure is to expensive, 'maybe you should just take a pain pill.'

It is true Hypo. My aunt who was about 78 or 79 and lived in England, found out she had lung cancer and was told because of her age and that her work years were over was denied any chemo or any other type assisntance except the nurse came to visit her. She wasted away to nothing before she died.

Obamacare sets up death panels as well.... they will decide if its feasible for you to receive costly healthcare.... its just a way to kill off the old people so they don't have to pay social security/medicare. After all we've aborted our workforce so we have to kill off the babyboomers.
