FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Britain’s National Health Service (NHS) could face a huge compensation bill over eye damage suffered by dozens of patients who underwent cataract operations by a private company working with the NHS.
Musgrove Park Hospital in Taunton is now facing legal claims from patients who say they were left with problems including impaired vision, pain and swelling after undergoing cataract removal operations by Vanguard Healthcare, which operated on the hospital site.
Lawyers for the patients said 31 out of the 62 people who underwent the surgeries reported poor outcomes.
The scandal will raise serious concerns over the British government’s plans to expand the role of private companies working with the NHS.
Laurence Vick, the head of clinical negligence at Michelmores Solicitors, which is acting on behalf of a number of patients, said the case disclosed the “uneasy relationship” between the private sector and the NHS.
“From the taxpayer’s point of view, it would be totally unreasonable for Vanguard to walk away from this scandal with only their reputation,” Vick said.
The report follows a warning by senior British conservatives that the NHS is in danger of collapse if no significant increase is made in health service spending. The group warned British Prime Minister David Cameron that the NHS must receive an extra 15 billion pounds over the next five years if it is to function properly.
Over 7,000 NHS clinical staff members, including doctors and nurses, have been made redundant since 2010, when the government launched spending cuts to contain the deepening budget shortfall.
