>American healthcare is the best in the world
>That's why you pay more for it
>Fuck socialized medicine that shit is garbage quality
t. American
Turns out it was shit quality all along. And don't forget the most expensive.
The top 3 causes of death in the US are from Heart Disease, Cancer, and Medical errors. The top 3 causes of death in first world countries (aka, Canada, UK, etc...) are Cancer, Heart Disease, and Stroke. And these are at lower rates because healthcare is more accessible.

So we kick so much ass literally two inevitable diseases and mistakes are all that stops us?
Leading cause in Canada: Govt services can't stop a fire. (Cuck-socialism aye?)
>>73142730
That makes no sense

No, rates of disease are higher in the US than elsewhere. You in fact kick less ass than other countries. Also California wildfires. Govt services can't stop a fire. Who are you calling a cuck?
>>73145042
How so?
>>73145042
It''s nurses.
They are the leading cause of medical error resulting in death. Many of them are just incompetent human trash who are impossible to fire due to quotas.
I highly suspect that a lot of medical practitioners are genuine psychopaths who relish in human suffering, too.

Have you tried bribing doctors?
>>73142730
Actually it means we have less strokes because we have better healthcare.
Also, we have more medical malpractice deaths because more people get to see a doctor.

>Actually it means we have less strokes because we have better healthcare.
That's factually incorrect. Rates for stroke are higher in the US.
In the US there's around 795k strokes per year. With a population of 318.9M, that's a 0.25% chance of having a stroke.
In Canada there's around 50k strokes per year. With a population of 35.16M, that's a 0.14% chance of having a stroke.

As explained, medical error usually doesn't show up in those charts, but if you actually counted for it, there's ~250k cases of medical error deaths in the US, which is above chronic lower respiratory diseases.
