- If you want less people to go to A&E start calling it Accident and Emergency. That's the view of Rory Sutherland, vice-chairman of marketing group Oglivy & Mather. He argues that in health and all other walks of life people are forced to make bad choices.

"A&E is like your best mate," Sutherland says at WIRED Health 2015. By rebranding it, people would stop putting unnecessary strain on the NHS.
These simple tricks could have a transformative effect on healthcare, Sutherland argues. He points to deferred prescriptions as an example of success. Rather than people going to see a GP and getting an immediate prescription for antibiotics, deferred prescriptions can be used to persuade people they don't need to take any medication.

What a blessing to have Rory around us.
Rory is my favourite presenter by far. Thrilled to bits to discover I have read all the books in the list - except one. Going to order it right away. [And what a list it is! Favourites: 'Why Everyone (Else) is a Hypocrite' / 'The Righteous Mind' / 'Irrationality' / 'The Rational Animal'. Excellent.
I love him. "just another minute..." X10
😆 that was genius. He was the human equivalent of the Microsoft progress bar.
Thank you sir!
I love this guy
Excellent.
"One of the things I didn't have to talk about" 😂. Rory is the secret ingredient in red bull. He could go forever & I could listen 😂
Thats it! Never ordering anything except for Gin ever again.
An excellent speaker, I need to find more of his meanderings.
Amazing
This is the keys to door of life.
Rory on top form here, love it
Ah! Rory I have an extension lead permanently in my suitcase!!
Ah yes ... indeed if I see people smoking I always ask why they aren't vaping. (One reason is the abundance of cheap smuggled ciggies by the way). And I say one choice is DEFINITELY bad for you and the other might be but might not be. Go for that! Also I point out the value of a KNOWN dose of nicotine vs randomly spiked ciggies (soooo immoral). But people need a pocket stress reliever ... think of something???
Oh that's why they changed the name of A&E to ED.....Erectile Dysfunction!
