American health care: a case in point.

[theweaselking]

Healthy Florida woman goes into hospital to deliver baby. Delivers baby, suffers unknown complications, is flown to another hospital, anaesthetised, and wakes up a quadruple amputee.

The hospital *will not tell her what happened*. They say that they amputated her limbs because she had a streptococcus infection, but *will not* explain how she got it, when it was diagnosed, how they decided to amputate, why she was not consulted, and they *will not* provide her with information about her diagnosis, telling her that if she wants to know anything, she should sue.

If you're a patient of Orlando Regional Healthcare Systems, you should run, not walk, to a first-world country, while you still can.
