E111 forms and reciprocation of free at the point of delivery healthcare among EU countries is a given. What goes around comes around and, given a measurement period long enough (eg 10 years), I dare say the figures would all even out between any given country pair. That was not the issue he brought up.
Farorrhoids has, twice, cited the hypothetical situation of a visitor being diagnosed with AIDS and obtaining expensive treatment here.
Name a European country notorious for having a high incidence of AIDS?
Struggling to think of one?
Okay, name a continent notorious for having a high incidence of AIDS? Might this be what Farage is alluding to?
Why be so specific? Why not mention a different medical condition at each debate, so long as it fitted his shock-horror pricetag picture?
The point he was trying to make "no money for treating pensioners because it was spent on health tourists" is valid but why ruin it by associating health tourism with a particular continent?
