A different bias did a video on this also a few days back. He was blaming excessive cost on a massive increase shortages. There is always a shortage on some medical supplies due to the flow and ebb of use. With the UK we had between 10-20 before Brexit. This was in line with other countries int he EU. Now, because we are at the back of the queue, we have 150+ regularly on the shortages list. This has increased procurement costs massively.
