16. Excellent, you kid me right? We have 50 million people with no access
how do you think they will react if they get a case of the sniffles that becomes serious, as in life threatening? That is when we will see them at the local ER

Now if we saw them at the local clinic and gave them a course of tamiflu or relelnza they might not be in the ER and be that MUCH cheaper to treat.

Did I mention those in the ER will have a greater death rate than those who went to their doctor early on?

:banghead:

ANd yes anecdotally I have had people tell me right to my face, I don't have health care, so what do you want me to frackin do?
