Brit Hospitals Turn Away Pregnant Women

Here's a troubling report from the Manchester Evening News.

UNDER-pressure maternity units are being forced to close their doors almost three times a week - because they cannot cope with the numbers of expectant mothers.

Health bosses say turning pregnant women away is a 'last resort', but the M.E.N. has learned there were 150 closures in Greater Manchester last year.

This was due to severe staff shortages and because all their beds were full. Staff also had to divert pregnant women to other hospitals because they were trying to cope with complex births, including a woman having triplets.

There you go. Socialized medicine at work. Promise everything to everybody and the result is rationing.
