The hospital’s top manager demanded the doctors write an apology to Letby and told them to stop making allegations against her
"Two consultants were ordered to attend mediation with Letby, even though they suspected she was killing babies
"On 29 June 2016, one of the consultants sent an email under the subject line: “Should we refer ourselves to external investigation?”

That is why capitalism is fundamentally stupid. It rewards the slimiest, not the best.
The NHS is not capitalist, it’s a centralised government managed health system.
Capitalism doesn’t have much to do with this at all. Like others have said, the NHS is a state run organization.

Just goes to show you that any system can be subverted, however, in the capitalist system the subversion is often profitable with minimal consequences for the recipients of the profits. Yay, capitalism (/s).
Mate if you want to moan about capitalism in healthcare go and find an American community on Lemmy.
It’s still capitalism’s fault even though I have no idea how
They needed to maintain their reputation in order to keep their jobs and stay on this hamster wheel?

and why is it being dismantled? To replace it with a for-profit system…
Is it using capitalist business practices internally?
Please tell me what you mean by “capitalist business practices”.
“Ignoring warnings” is not a character flaw unique to “capitalists”.
It really isn’t this is the similar to say state run nuclear plants…face saving.
I fully.support the NHS method as think it good value (if not starved of funding). But have to admit all systems can have flaws.
What are you talking about?
Why would America do this?
