fun fact the minimum wage is yearly readjusted and based on the cost of common basic items

how is it so bad? I have no fucking clue, we have chronic critical shortage of medics since as far as I can remember

medicine is a very elitized field in brazil

the only exception to that were the few doctors from cuba we had, though seem to have disappeared, unsure why, maybe they just became brazillians

because the fascists didn't like the idea of cuban medics damaging their precious little ivory tower.
