Article is misleading as fuck. A third of life or death 999 ambulance calls are not attended by a paramedic… they’re attended by a doctor, who has significantly more training than a paramedic.
Can’t make this shit up. The NHS is under-funded as fuck and the Guardian is complaining about the one thing that isn’t a problem
So one spokesperson who is paid to male the NHS look good in front of the media claims that “some” incidents were responded to by a doctor. That some could be just the one.
Where there are multiple sources in the article claiming statistics of the number of incidents that do not have a paramedic on site, just EMTs.
Yeah, not buying your “mountain out of a molehill” argument.
