I voted her for this kind of policies, but reality is not that simple. Public healthcare costs a lot of money, and current facilities and personnel are in the stone age. I wouldn't go to any public healthcare facility right now as my first choice. At least not where I live. Sustained investment and vigilance are key, and I hope that by the end of her mandate we will have something we could call a proper public healthcare system, not yet a decent one, but an existing one.
True. But private healthcare costs even more.
True. But it only matters if you are alive. Look, I'm not trying to be cynical, we have both systems in Mexico, and I've experienced both as a client. I'm all for public healthcare, but if it doesn't work, it's only a pretty idea. On the private side, yeah it's fucking expensive, but it kind of works for the ones who can afford it. Just to be clear, we agree.
Dr .Simi login.... (Very cheap Mexican drugstore chain, med labs and MDs consultation, even veterinary services on some cities)
A step in the right direction. Thank you for sharing the realism on a clickbait title.
Mexicano Tijuanense aquí, I concur
Although the voter ID registration for existing and new phone numbers is dumb as shit. Complete erosion of privacy.
Sí, esas mamadas qué?
This kinda thing doesn’t turn on over night. You might be able to afford private, but very few will be able to. The American paid system has a 3-9 month wait for doctor visits right now in Tucson. My doctor also doesn’t even physically examine me anymore because they’re so rushed to get in other patients, because capitalism.
Edit: not that capitalism is evil, it just has no place in healthcare.
I'm okay with both opinions of capitalism as evil or not. The American healthcare system is, sorry, it is dogshit. No one should be living under that system, it's only better than nothing at all, I guess.
As a Canadian living in the southwestern US because I physically cannot handle the cold, the healthcare here is worse than dog shit.
Still something better than the US, where some wait (or are poor so they just need to go to the ER) until the ER when it’s too late. The only prevention is those with regular insurance and use it.
