"Childhood rashes are very common and are often nothing to worry about. Most rashes are harmless and go away on their own.
However, if your child has developed a rash and seems unwell, or if you're worried, you should see your GP to find out the cause and for any necessary treatment.
The following guide may give you a better idea of the cause of the rash, but do not use this to self-diagnose your child's condition – always see a GP for a proper diagnosis."

Personally, I would trust this information over a series of random posters on an entertainment forum.
Not the relevant circumstances though. If the child has a rash- for 118 hours a week there are no GPs. This implies you can wait up to three days before you go to one. The problem is what to do if your child needs someone earlier - and you have to make a judgement on the best information you have on whether its something that will wait, or something that needs a visit to a nd e. If everyone goes to a and e, a and e will stutter to a halt, if everyone waits, till a GP turns up to work, people will die.
This may surprise some people, but I think Hunt is completely right. He doesn't go far enough IMHO, though, and should have said that no one should visit a doctor unless they've stopped breathing. Just think of all the many it would save.

His mate has put him in charge of the NHS.
That makes him an expert.
Thats the way our system works.
Obviously superbly well.
