Less experienced staff can be slower to diagnose & may (often rightly) seek further tests. This isn't a problem individually but overall can slow down heath care.

Its just what a workforce already patterned by overwork, exhaustion & burnout, does not need.
With the NHS already losing staff as fast as it can train & recruit them, this just looks like one more body blow intended to strengthen the appeal of the private sector...
not so much a 'solution' as a further attack.

'here's where to find mifepristone'
but nowhere have i seen posts saying…
'seriously consider getting a vasectomy [so you can potentially avert the risk to someone's life or livelihood]'
as someone that's had one, there's usually a 3 month waiting period so you have time to think it over. when you go in for the procedure, it takes about an hour—half of it filling paperwork out, changing into a gown, and waiting for the surgeon. recovery took me about a day to feel 70% normal, then roughly a week to get back to 100%. there are typically no obvious signs there's been an incision since the way the procedure is done is so minimally invasive and there's zero impact to sexual or urinary function.
at this point, taking it upon yourself to get a vasectomy and talking openly about it is direct action, or at least adjacent

„The Israeli military said on Nov 6 that aid organisations had completed a second polio vaccination round for children in Gaza, (…) achieving 90% coverage.
Limits on the area covered by a humanitarian pause in the fighting to conduct the campaign, meant the campaign in northern Gaza was largely restricted to the area around Gaza City, the World Health Organisation said.“

»A #baby who was very, very sick, needed to be on a #ventilator. After the baby passed away, what are we going to do with that ventilator? There is no way to sanitize the ventilator and get rid of that multidrug-resistant #bacteria. We also didn’t have tubing to change when we used the ventilator for another baby. So there is a very big chance that you’re going to spread the infection to other babies: so either the baby dies because there is no ventilator or the baby dies because of the bacterial infection. Your options were tragically limited.«
