Why do we keep pretending that ‘cost-saving’ is at the top of what matters to us in public health? This is an economic priority, not necessarily a health one. We get too sucked into trying to be ‘pragmatic’ & lose sight of the notion that such an ideological stance is a choice not an inevitability.
