Our constitutional rights declare:
" No one may be refused emergency medical treatment." - It fails to say that you will have to sell your home to pay for it!
Hmmm....Have you just had a heart attack, car accident or other serious injury?
Try going to a private hospital ! (You really do not want to try a government hospital - especially the very dirty Addington Hospital in Durban)
When my wife was seriously injured in an accident, private hospitals wanted a deposit of R20,000 before they would even look at her!
When my sister-in-law was seriously wounded in a stabbing, the nearest hospitals would not even look at her because she earns below the bread line!
Finally they were taken to a government hospital and left to rot!
WHAT DO WE PAY TAXES FOR??? Oh yes I forgot...for a nice new BMW for our government ministers and their families to enjoy whenever they want, and whatever else the steadily puffing gravy train can provide!
