Sorry in 4 years cancer drugs /treatment will cost the nhs 50 billion a year .
So will they have to stop treating people?Add to that 50 billion the increase in treatment costs for other illnesses and the nhs could collapse .

More to the point why are they spending millions on research, charities raising millions for research in to effective drugs and then say they can't give them to people are to expensive. If they are going to let people die for lack of drugs then why bother finding the drugs in the first place if you see what I mean.
If I had cancer and was told a certain drug was really expensive but might prolong my life by a couple of months I would refuse that particular drug.If it would mean adding years to my life than I would take it but all these ones on the news are just short term things from what I have seen and read.
