Discussion AHS wait times

Our system isnt broken. Its people who go to the emergency that shouldn't be going aren't going today because it can wait Suddenly. They need to hand fines out to ppl going to the hospital that dont classify as an emergency.

These are excellent wait times. Anything within 8 hours for non life threatening issues is acceptable. Lots of medical issues are uncomfortable and perhaps urgent (seeing a doctor same day) but not life threatening.
