This is incorrect! There were several voices saying that healthcare=centre has some merit, and more 
coming in.

I agree that we should head for being more specific, but there are two roads to choose from.
- One road is to check if there is a more precise top-level tag (e.g. amenity=hospital etc)
- the other is to specify the centre with appropriate sub-tagging, as it is currently the case
   with German vaccination centres (healthcare:speciality=vaccination).

Both methods are now described on the restructured wiki page. As for the comparison with
healthcare=yes, it is untrue that this would mean the same. For healthcare=centre it is
clear that the mapper had a physical facility in mind which has some central characteristics,
while healthcare=yes just means anything related to healthcare, wthout even being physical.
