America has no real public health system – coronavirus has a clear run.
Dr Anthony S Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and just
about the only official in the Trump administration trusted to tell the truth about the coronavirus,
said last Thursday: “The system does not, is not really geared to what we need right now … It is
failing, let’s admit it.”
Instead of a public health system, we have a private for-profit system for individuals lucky enough
to afford it and a rickety social insurance system for people fortunate enough to have a full-time job.
Almost 30% of American workers have no paid sick leave from their employers, including 70% of
low-income workers earning less than $10.49 an hour.
—Once the most powerful country in the world, America has been brought to its knees, aided and
abetted by the scariest, most ignorant, arrogant politician in the Western world.

Don't spread shit (especially political), there is enough going around as it is.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
