J&J should pay the NHS the cost of hip replacement surgeries. Why is the Welsh Assembly not taking this up? Why is the Minister for Health not on top of this? The failure rate of these hips is 49%; they were not properly tested, so how on earth did NHS Trusts in Wales opt for these defective J&J hip devices? cwAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34112832.post-85664297305866310612011-07-27T09:34:01.450+01:002011-07-27T09:34:01.450+01:00Just about sums it up - thanks!
