It's easy not to trust a system associated with charging you $500 for Tylenol. Much easier (and occasionally even safer) to just smell some lavender and hope that helps. Go to an ED and you could just die of a stroke or heart attack in the waiting room or even get run over by somebody who died of a heart attack while driving and just plowed through the waiting room because they couldn't afford an ambulance. And the Healthcare system is largely failing because of insurance companies. Burn inhumana and united quacks to the ground 2k24.
Edit: also housing. Fix the housing crisis and the Healthcare system could probably pull through despite the odds. There's a huge number of homeless people that just live in hospitals, especially psych wards and I'm not even kidding.
US has a huge influence on the entire world. Could it be that it started (or got amplified) in the US due to poor healthcare and then spread out to the rest of the world? I'm not trying to put all the blame on US of course, but it doesn't sound that unreasonable that it could be partially responsible.
Maybe the prominent anti-vax campaigns in the US and their proselytizing on the internet have contributed to the sentiment overall but there's always been mistrust of vaccines around the world. Most of the current anti-vax rhetoric about the autism link was first put forward by a British doctor https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140673605756968/fulltext
The modern Antivax movement was literally started by a British doctor anal probing kids to prove the jab doesn't work, but don't let that stop you from making everything America's fault!
Hey, I've been really careful with my words to NOT say that. I was just wondering and I acknowledge that it might be nonsense.
