According to the daily mail of October 21, a British man hanged himself while waiting for wisdom tooth extraction from the British national medical service system.
On April 3, the police found Anthony & middot; Hoskins died in his apartment in Southampton, England. The 38 year old man worked in an employment agency before his death and had been waiting on the waiting list of British national health insurance for wisdom tooth extraction.
Hawkins' mother Shirley said in a statement that Hawkins' teeth began to ache in January. After seeing the dentist, Hoskins' condition worsened and he began to take a large number of painkillers mixed with paracetamol and ibuprofen. The cost of pulling out wisdom teeth was about 1500 pounds (14000 yuan), and Hoskins had been saving money for the next month.
The doctor prescribed more powerful painkillers for Hoskins and advised him to drink a glass of whisky every night to help him sleep. In March this year, Hoskins told his mother that he had had enough of this pain, but she told him that she had saved 900 pounds (about 8300 yuan), and he could make an appointment for private treatment in a few weeks.
Hoskins's mother said, 'my son is just an ordinary person who lives a normal life. He likes playing computer games and the economy is good. He pays the rent on time and comes to see me every week. He is now at rest and does not have to suffer any more. "
Constable Simon & middot; Collins said at the hearing in Winchester Court: "Hoskins's mother called the police and said she had not heard from Hoskins for several days. He didn't come home to see her because of illness the week before."
The police then forcibly entered his penthouse and found him dead in his bedroom. A bank receipt found in the bedroom showed that Hawkins' credit card overdrawn 3000 pounds (about 27000 yuan). The cause of death investigation report showed that in the weeks before his death, he was often asked to work overtime.
In a statement, a doctor from a private medical institution that Hawkins often goes to said that the last time Hawkins went to the clinic was in August 2018, when he complained about his toothache.
Pathologist Eleanor & middot; Dr. Janis performed an autopsy and provided the cause of death, acting District coroner Samantha & middot; Marsh came to the conclusion of suicide.
