Umm when u gv stats u compare there to gv some kinda analysis and conclude if there is a problem or not. Just so them ppl quoting numbers. AA
SO HOW MANY THOUSANDS YOU GUYS NEVER RESPONDED TO BECAUSE ONLY 2 AMBULANCES ON THE ISLAND. HOW MANY PEOPLE DIED BECAUSE NO AMBULANCE CAME, TALLY THAT. CHOOPS.
HEY RETARDS, HOW ABOUT POSTING THE DATA FROM LAST YEAR FOR COMPARISON ? YOU CAN TELL WHEN PEOPLE ARE PRESENTINGS DATA THAT THEY HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO USE.
@Justsayin “…For the whole of last year, there were 8, 901 ambulance responses to medical situations affecting 8, 981 patients.”
@Justsayin … you do not read too well. I think an apology is in order.
Seems some “readers” have no idea of what they are asking for … maybe if the numbers were given in percentages, would that be understood??
And who gave info that there are only TWO ambulances on the island? That seems absurd, seeing that each constituency has their own ambulance or 2.
People can lie, oui?!
