I can't... shit weather?
Although I would argue that it's not necessarily the health care system that's at fault for old people dieing. Every year thousands of old people die because they get their gas/electricity turned off and there's nothing that can be done about it.
Or they die from lack of sanitation, you often hear stories of police breaking into old people's homes to find the person dead with piles and piles of rubbish, etc.
There are huge problems with how the aged are treated in this country, but I don't think those problems are coming from the NHS, more with how they're treated by general society - ignored, basically.
