I gotta say. For how much Japan's government charges me for healthcare every month, it doesn't portray a lot of confidence. In the US, despite the high costs of not having health insurance, it wouldn't ever get this bad, especially in my state. I get my 2nd jab tomorrow, months behind other developed countries, but at least it will be done. |
Not everywhere in the USA has it better than Japan.
You get a heart attack, or get into a car crash, you need a bed (not be told, wait a day or two, in the ambulance for a spot to clear up).
Some states have negative beds (ei. more beds used than they rightfully have space for).
You have hospitals with hallways / cafeteria's made into make-shift area's for extra beds in hospitals.
Case in point: Alabama has no ICU beds (you need immediate care? tuff sh*t, you might die, cuz of lack of beds atm)
Florida isnt far from being like that either.
Texas has issues too.
