378,400 patients left hospital emergency without seeing a doctor this year!

 IEDM (l'institut économique de Montréal) published a studyin january 2020 of why more than 1000 patients a day leave emergency admission without being treated.  Waiting more than 4 months for not urgent surgeryis the case of 18 % of surgeries in Canada, 3% in the United States, 6 % in Switzerland and 0% in Germany!  The current statistics are much worse because of the Covid 19 pandemic.
