It's not right that they didn't have a dedicated staff - I'm in TOTAL agreement.

But we have to look at it from that point of view. Another country is Italy - and there have been many hospitals shut down there in the past two years. Example - the one in Acri - you now have to drive over an hour down the mountain to get to Cosenza city's hospital. And it's not as well staffed as it needs to be.
