Health care in Iran
A fascinating article from the AARP magazine about the U.S. health care system...trying to emulate the Iranian health care system. An excerpt:
"Iran has won kudos from the World Health Organization for its innovative primary health care system. That system has eliminated health disparities between rural and urban populations over the last 30 years, reducing infant mortality in rural areas by tenfold."The absurdity of the U.S. health "care" system, and thinking that it is in any way designed to actually produce health care, comes through loud and clear, despite the premise of the article.
