America and India have the worst healthcare systems in the world, as a consequence they've the worst COVID19 outbreaks. There's a direct link here. Without a universal healthcare system, they may never get rid of COVID19.

I’m one of those that a majority of my social security goes to pay my hospital and doctors. It’s sad I have to spend my life on so little funds due to a disability I have no control over. All the while, the rich get richer. This system does not work for the people

The only ethical option is socialized medicine 😐🤷🏽‍♂️ For someone to cut off funding for someone’s treatments & killing them because it’s “too expensive & they’re cutting into my profits” is monstrous & the pro life crowd should want the ppl in prison 😐🤷🏽‍♂️
