doggy,

Our adjusted ebitda numbers are better than PERI's already.

stt1,

In the case of my neighbours death the coroner would not necessarily have known whether NHS 111 were called or not.
Therefore its failure could not be investigated and reported on.
Recommendations could not be made either.
Plus NHS 111 and NHS 999 do not ask the same questions when presented with illness.
You say they use the same 'pathways' - that is just jargon, they do not sing from the same hymn sheet at all.

My point is that whether TLY or any other NHS 111 provider is consulted, they cannot be relied upon to ask relevant questions and automatically treat calls as non-emergency.
But how are the general public to decide what is an emergency and what is not?
We are not trained doctors, we are just seeking help and advice.
If you have any concerns do not call NHS 111 - or do so at your peril - they are not trained to recognise anything but minor issues.

Thanks Thordon,

I have done that, below is my complaint to 'england.contactus@nhs.net':

Hello,

I phoned NHS 111 in Hastings E. Sussex on 25/12/2001

My neighbour’s wife (Linda, 67 years old) had been ill with a suspected virus and, after just 5 days from contracting it, became suddenly unable to walk unaided to the bathroom/toilet.
I am not a doctor but felt that her health was very rapidly deteriorating and confusion was setting in.

We clearly stated (to NHS 111) that she had become much worse (after 5 days) and unable to walk.
We stated that she was becoming confused.
NHS 111 asked if they could speak with Linda and then decided she was only fatigued and advised us to phone back in three days if she felt no better.
We felt that NHS 111 were a complete waste of time.

I then phoned 999 emergency services and (in response to their questions) suggested that she was unconscious and barely breathing and had lost a lot of blood – you soon realise that you have to make the patient’s condition seem much worse in order to pass their check-list questioning and in order to get them to come out with an ambulance.
They very quickly came out to help and took her to hospital immediately, after seeing her and realising how seriously ill she was, but Linda died within just a few hours at the local ‘Conquest’ hospital, in Hastings.
Apparently ‘Sepsis’ was to blame (it was mentioned on her death certificate) and NHS 111 did not even consider that as a possibility.

If NHS 111 had taken Linda’s condition seriously or requested an ‘out of hours’ G.P. to visit immediately or contacted NHS 999 it may still have been too late.
However their ‘hands-off’ stance showed an appalling lack of care or understanding of ‘sepsis’.

Kind regards,

Are executive incentives closely aligned with the interests of the shareholders?

Yes and No!

At least Greenbrook Healthcare released a sepsis awareness video:

(Sepsis kills more people than breast, bowel and prostate cancer combined.)

Unfortunately their NHS 111 does not have a clue about sepsis or what questions to ask.

doggy,

My apologies for confusing the NYSE with NASDAQ.

It takes time to earn respect and Tremor are a relative newcomer to the NYSE, and with a foot in AIM which is seen as a casino basically.
All the same 'money talks' eventually...

stt1 tries to argue that NHS 111 is a non-emergency service.
So if you know you have an emergency on your hands then NHS 111 is not worth anything.
Just phone 999.
But how can you tell what is an emergency?
The fact is that the general public have no idea and would be better served by avoiding NHS 111.
Therefore NHS 111 is not a first port of call if you need advice.

stt1 - please try to keep a civil tongue in your head.
The general public are being misled and do not know what exactly is an emergency, how could they.
They are being led to believe NHS 111 should be a first port of call.
A safe place for advice.
NHS 111 do not have a clue and give out misleading advice - in my experience.
If this advice is followed then it may lead to patient death.
They do not even have the sense to say that the emergency services should be called if in doubt.
That alone should speak volumes.

You say that urgent and emergency are two different things.
Who is to decide that is the case?
Probably not NHS 111.

Then you mention 'life-threatening' cases, again who is to decide?
People are dying because NHS 111 are mis-diagnosing serious health conditions and yet you play with words.
This is utterly appalling and you should not try to make me feel embarrassed for saying so.
I am not in the least embarrassed for calling out NHS 111 as being unfit for purpose - in my experience.

HP printers are a con job, they deserve grief.
HP Desk-jet 3760 doesn't print when I want copy, demands a network and lots of hassle - a waste of money.
Found a discarded Samsung Xpress M2026W - prints every time at the press of a button .
HP can't even get their act together with printers from my experience.

doggy,

For electrical work our screws work as follows:
'Righty- tighty' / lefty-loosey'.

Do you screw otherwise?

You can be sure Tremor are actively eying up potential acquisitions/partners all the time.
They have done pretty well so far and have the cash to prove it.

Tremor are cash-rich, so a buyback alone would mean there are no better opportunities out there.
That seems very unlikely, and quoting imaginary ebitda or sales growth figures as an obstacle when
there are companies looking for cash seems rather contrary.

The Fed is pulling back on Covid support measures that helped buoy the stock market.
They can't keep on dishing out help (and running up debt) forever.
The sharp rise in bond yields in recent days has destabilized growth and tech stocks.
Bonds affect the stock market by competing with stocks for investors' dollars.
Bonds are safer than stocks, but they offer lower returns.

The yield on 10-year Treasury debt rose to as high as 1.8% Friday, a record for the pandemic era and a level last seen in January 2020. It has risen all week, from 1.51% at the close on Dec. 31.

All three major U.S. stock indexes spent most of Friday in negative territory. The Nasdaq Composite fell as much as 1.3% and the S&P 500 lost as much as 0.6%. Those indexes are down about 7% and 2%, respectively, from their record highs. It makes sense because higher bond yields make future profits less valuable in current terms, a particular problem for fast-growing tech stocks whose prices reflect expectations for earnings that will flow in years from now.

Qwerty,

Covid has not ended anyway, new variants are mutating all the time.

Remote work and virtual meetings are likely to continue into the foreseeable future, albeit less intensely than at the pandemic’s peak.
E-commerce and other virtual transactions are booming.
You stated that a drop across the board was largely a result of a realisation that covid had ended and people would go back to work as before.
Not so, many companies have benefited from remote workers and have closed down costly workplaces.
Roughly three-quarters of people using digital channels for the first time during the pandemic say they will continue using them when things return to “normal,” according to McKinsey Consumer Pulse surveys conducted around the world.
The 'new normal' will not be the 'old normal'.

What do you not understand?

Qwerty,

You have pigeons in the loft.

stt1 said (1'st Nov 2021):

"If you're not sure what to do
NHS 111 can help if you need urgent medical help or you're not sure what to do.
They will ask questions about your symptoms so you get the help you need."

Now he says changes tack and says NHS 111 are a non-emergency service.
And then goes on to say I should do some proper research to stop embarrassing myself.

I accept that sepsis is difficult to diagnose but NHS 111 dismissed the situation as general fatigue, nothing serious, did not think an out of hours G.P. was appropriate, whereas NHS 999 at least asked for clarification about breathing, blood loss and consciousness and took the matter very seriously.

And as for a patient managing to see their own G.P. in an emergency situation - what planet is stt1 on?
