yeah, i'm not surprised based on what i saw of medicine in bulgaria and serbia, next door.
there's something really wrong with the advanced liberal democratic "first world" countries. i've heard other things from others about this that many other countries are better.
oh yeah that reminds me, when i was travelling to england for the first time in late 2012, i ended up staying in a beijing 1950s era hotel with this english girl who was pregnant and going back to england to get medical care with the "better" NHS... so uh. yeah, i can believe that australian doctors were already worse than british ones at that time. i'm sure it's all about the same now, and not much different to USA.
the richer the country, at this time, the worse the medicine, it seems. and probably the food, which is part of how it happens, because people become stupified by toxic food, staring at flickering screens all day programming them to just agree with whatever they are told. so they just keep on reducing the reality until it gets so thin everyone starts to go "hang on, have i been missing something here?"
