Orwell would be proud

The Government used to have a number of categories for recording the outcomes of people on waiting lists for elective surgery.

One of those categories was deceased – thus giving us a total for the number of people who die on waiting lists, awaiting operations.

But this will not do in Helengrad, so they have reclassified patients who die, as “patient removed due to changed patient circumstances”!!!!

Well yes being dead certainly is a changed circumstance.
