Retour de la gale en Angleterre : Les commerçants de la santé refusent
de soigner les galeux qui n'ont pas d'argent , et comme la
privatisation est faite , le délai de 6 mois d'attente dans les
"hôpitaux" (sortes de mouroirs) publics , permettent à l'épidémie de
se propager dans les milieux pauvres et travailleurs , à grande
vitesse .

Info communiquée par un proche qui vit en Angleterre .
