In a shocking revelation, it has been unveiled that the death rates in the NHS are among the highest across the globe.

Poor care is one of the main reasons for which people die. As per reports, approximately 50% British patients have probable chance of dying from poor care than patients in America.

To talk about the other reasons due to which people can lose their lives are that people have five times more chance of dying from pneumonia. Moreover, they have twice the chance of being killed by blood poisoning.

The revelations have added the ongoing concerns with regard to the NHS. Experts were of the view that there is no doubt about the fact the NHS has been making improvements. But it is worth noticing that the NHS death rates are quite more than the numbers present in a number of other countries.

The report has been obtained from Professor Brian Jarman, known expert on hospital performance. The data has unveiled that the death rate in the NHS in 2012 was 45% higher than in America.

"I expected us to do well and was very surprised we didn't do well - but there is no means of denying the results as they are absolutely clear", said Prof Jarman.
