EU migrants won’t take advantage of the NHS because they don’t want itThere is a lot of pride surrounding the NHS and with it comes fear that EU migrants will take advantage of the universal healthcare system. But EU patients aren't that crazy about the NHS to begin with, say Chris Moreh, Derek McGhee and Athina Vlachantoni Don't blame 'em.
