@thebritishreel: "How did we see a doctor?" — "Depends who pays." 🩺 London, 1855, no NHS: the men paid into a club, and the club paid the doctor. Guy's Hospital was free… with a letter from a governor, unless it was an accident. The parish doctor came only if the relieving officer said you were poor enough. And the chemist sold Holloway's Pills, good for everything. No exam needed until 1868. Then, on 5 July 1948: "Everyone – rich or poor, man, woman or child – can use it." (In England, prescriptions still cost extra.) #HowDidWeDoIt #HiddenHistory #BritishHistory #Victorian #NHS

More than the doctor we now have antibiotics. Without them a doctor can do something but cannot cure
