Old age is catching up with Mick.
https://www.thesun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/8767672/mic ... t-surgery/

Riddle me this; Why would someone like Mick Jagger with all his money have surgery in New York when as a British citizen he would be able to receive superior treatment free of charge back home? Why get surgery in an inferior country with inferior health care?

I could be totally wrong about this, but I believe there are two tiers of medical service available in the UK. The terrible "park it and wait a few months or more" socialist system health care service for those who don't pay (sans through exorbitant taxation) for it, and the prompt premium health care service available to those willing to pay a goodly price for it.

Come on guys, he is a national treasure and has to be protected. We have Mick and you have Willie Nelson and FF. All three show that clean living is a waste of time and does not guarantee longevity.

Jagger is a US citizen and lives in LA. Not sure why everyone is going on and on about UK healthcare.

When you need valve replacement the far and away most likely cause is that you were born with a bicuspid aorta valve as opposed to the normal tri-cuspid.

And in other news, I have a bicuspid aorta.

A life time of cocaine use is also a likely cause of heart valve damage. :-o

Sir Michael Philip Jagger has duel citizenship so he is still a British citizen as well.
