People outside the US really have no concept of what it's like inside that country. They haven't for decades.
I try to keep this in mind whenever I read about events in another country. We always see such a tiny slice of the situation.
The special issue of Chinese Medicine and Culture, volume 7, discusses the global cross-cultural integration of TCM in the mainstream healthcare, medical education and the practice of medicine. It describes how TCM was established in the west, how schools were formed, how regulation was put together, and what is the future of the profession. With interviews of some of the key pioneers in the field, Ted Kaptchuk, Peter Deadman, Will Morris, Nigel Wiseman, Peter Eckman, John McDonald , Judy James, Felicity Moir, Edward Neal, and Mel Hopper Koppelman.

New Oxford University analysis has debunked #NHS privatisation
Oxford researchers looked at studies of healthcare #privatisation and found they agreed on one thing: privatisation leads to poorer quality care for patients.
Every month, private hospitals send 550 of their patients to the NHS because of an emergency they had while in the private hospital?
What’s more, in the last four years, 791 NHS patients who were transferred to be treated in private hospitals have sued for #medical #negligence - AND WON.
The evidence is crystal clear. Privatisation works for shareholders, not patients.

Peyo tells his trainer which room he wants to enter next by stopping or raising his leg. Peyo is 15 and seems able to detect when humans have cancers and tumours. He stayed nearly two hours here, watching over a dying woman.
‘I accompany him but I let him do what he wants, he’s the one who decides,’

I wonder if this is not the breaking point of our system? When well-educated people prefer to develop ransomware instead of working for the common good because the system doesn't offer them better prospects.

Same here in the Netherlands, care is worse, prices rise sky high, money is roamed off at management and CEO level, all the while lambasting how Care is getting to expensive to keep in a social system... Yeah, because they cause it to be to expensive, and they can keep more and more procedures for rich folks only, poor folks better not be born, or some such shit.
It is a large attempt from the right to kill of social systems.
