| Dan Rivers, CNN ... not Super One |
In the last hours CNN has been running the following report on Shweyga Mullah - click: Burned Gadhafi nanny arrives for treatment in Malta.
Dan Rivers, CNN's Senior International Correspondent, refers to Mater Dei as a "state of the art hospital" and that Ms Mullah "is arriving here in Malta to world class treatment".
Clearly, Rivers has not been watching enough Super One news lately. He would have learned that this hospital dumps its patients in corridors, feeds them rice with rat meat, has its nurses and doctors permanently up in arms and its emergency ward resembles the one Ms Mullah left behind in Tripoli.

You are just trying to be sarcastic
not realising that these things really happen at Mater Dei
.
Can you deny that patients are left in corridors for a VERY long time?
Hve you ever visited the Emergency Dept.especially on Sundays?
Have you forgotten when they found, not a rat,but a mouse in the food?
Let's admit we are using this incident just to show the world,we are doing our part,and rightly so,but charity should begin at home.
How about reducing the waiting time for having an opoeration? but of course this would not make world news.
Theo Vella put up this comment on this this post on fb:"Theo Vella Imma ghalfejn nipprovaw noholqu apatija anke meta kulhadd qed jaqbel li l-gvern Malti ghamel gest sabih ma din il-persuna... Mhux kulhadd japrezza li ghandna sptar modern u b'nies dedikati, izda nafu wkoll li kien hemm sitwazzjonijiet li vera kien hemm problema ta' sodod (imma forsi trid tkun misset lil xi hadd tal-familja biex jemmen!)"
Well the truth is that yes, people DO have to be relegated to corridors, in hospital, because there is simply not enough room for them on the wards - this despite the fact that the same problem already existed in St Luke's, and that one is supposed to have planned carefully (during the planning stage of the new hospital) not to have the same mistakes and the same draw-backs repeated. The truth is just that - the truth - and no one can deny it.
It simply does not stop becoming "the truth" because Super One reports it.
The "rice with ratmeat" episode, as far as I know, was a one-time-only phenomenon (which was one time too many, of course) involved salad not rice, and the source of the ratmeat (a rodent's head) was probably a preparation of ready-to-serve salad leaves which were imported from (again, if I am not mistaken) the Netherlands.
