Abstract
Last week more than 400 public health doctors, specialists, and academics from across the country wrote an open letter to the House of Lords stating that the Health and Social Care Bill will do "irreparable harm to the NHS, to individual patients, and to society as a whole," that it will "erode the NHS’s ethical and cooperative foundations," and that it will "not deliver efficiency, quality, fairness, or choice."
