It's part & parcel of the Tory austerity program. You know, the UK equivalent of the GOP. Conservatives can fuck up anything.
The information came from the Royal Collage of Surgeons, do we have reason to depute the information they released?I am zero percent surprised that this ended up being a piece by a right wing think tank.
Amazing how conservatives are either unwilling or unable to understand the difference between real news and this.
Britain has decided on their preferred trade offs when it comes to healthcare and can live with the benefits and consequences of that choice. The U.S. has chosen different trade offs and lives with those benefits and consequences.

There was literally only 1 statistic that cited the Royal College of Surgeons in the entire article.
But early diagnosis doesn't necessarily mean you are actually going to live any longer in total, it simply means more time elapses between diagnosis and death, because you will pick up more smaller cancers. This would make the stat look better without actually changing the outcome in a way that makes any difference to life expectancy overall. Most men get prostate cancer if they live long enough, it's almost as inevitable as conservatism.

It's too difficult for you to understand. The big beautiful healthcare is on it's way, this time you can believe him, THIS time.We'd obviously choose differently if the GOP got out of the way-

It's voters' #1 issue going into the 2020 election. And Trump has a terrific plan, but he can't tell us about it until after the election, probably because it's no plan at all.

To this exact point, that's precisely what the weight of prostate cancer screening data says. I think the summary of availabile literature was in JAMA in May of last year (referencing the PLCO, CAP, and ESRPC) stated. (Yes, I know ESRPC is a little murky and may suggest the opposite, but in reality probably not).
I can't quite work out if you are confirming the point! But I guess you are? I think this, prostate-cancer post-diagnosis life-expectancy, has come up before, and the statistical slight-of-hand was obvious to me as soon as I heard it. And I _think_ , from what has been said, it is indeed mostly the case - that that stat is mostly an artifact of the US systems's greater keenness for testing and diagnostic labeling. With other conditions early diagnosis and aggressive treatment might, maybe, be a good thing, but it doesn't seem to be true for prostate cancer, you just get better looking numbers and no real benefit.
The NHS certainly has it's own problems, that said, tough decisions do need to be made on a population level. Not everyone can get everything all the time. It's just not possible. Some prefer "most" get "pretty good" care, some prefer "rich" get "great" care and "poor" get "shit" care.
