Discussion of public health and health care policy, from a public health perspective. The U.S. spends more on medical services than any other country, but we get less for it. Major reasons include lack of universal access, unequal treatment, and underinvestment in public health and social welfare. We will critically examine the economics, politics and sociology of health and illness in the U.S. and the world.

Only in New York
Guy goes to emergency department with a rash. He's sitting in the waiting room for 8 hours then a security guard finds him dead in his chair.
My sister lives in Manhattan. Once the subway came and she saw one car miraculously empty, so she got on. Turns out there was a dead guy at one end. He'd been going back and forth from Yonkers to the Battery, apparently, and nobody bothered to remove him.
But you know, New York is the greatest city in the world.
