Meh- the NHS is a good thing. But people are people all over the world, difficult, doubting, obstreperous. The "test" is a reaction to people bigging up their illness.
In my mind, the same applies as a migraine test. People clutch their heads and moan about having a migraine
while sitting at their desk and working! Or my ex-landlord having one all day... but listening to the radio and making himself
real coffee and
real porridge (from oatmeal)...
No.
If you have a migraine you hope you have a brain tumour, because at least that means you'll be on opiates until you die.
And if you have influenza you don't behave like someone who fancies a few days off work. Maybe Brits don't make the best Doctors though
