A guy at work just told me about his uncle that had to get his leg amputated because the "awesome" socialized health care he lives under. Apparently the operating rooms are so unsanitary that his story is common. The doctors went into to do a common procedure and his leg got infected......so much for his leg.
Other stories I have heard of similar situations where it is actually cheaper to do something radical like amputate a limb then it is to do surgery....so instead of considering what is best for the patient, they go with the cheaper solution. Lovely.
