SwedishCare: "Shut up or die"

Welcome to SvenCare©, where your nurses are hot (or not), you can literally be saved by the bell (or not), and you can call 911 but you better not say anything when you do:

"Swedish health authorities have come under criticism over the death of a woman whose repeated calls to emergency services were ignored because she was still able to talk."

But not, of course, for long. In Sweden, apparently, those cell phone minutes can kill you.

Literally:

"Jill Soderberg, 22, died in her home... shortly after she had placed her third and last call ... requesting an ambulance"

Hey, just because she was having major respiratory failure is no reason to be alarmed, right? After all, she could still talk, right?

Right?!
