Closed Temporary nationalisation of private hospitals amid coronavirus pandemic - UK

Closed on

The UK government is currently funnelling public money into shareholder pockets to rent private beds for the treatment of coronavirus sufferers, the situation should be treated as the emergency it is, taking all health provision into direct control for an indefinite period of time.

The UK government should follow the Spanish governments lead and seek to issue an emergency decree to take control of all the country’s healthcare facilities – including private hospitals and pharmaceutical manufacture – in response to the coronavirus pandemic.
