The teacher in the medical English class showed this documentary. After watching it, I felt that I had been completely deceived by Grey's Anatomy. In the American TV series Grey, apart from the doctors' selflessness and professionalism, as well as their emotional entanglements, there are few scenes where patients are unable to pay for medical expenses, and the major surgery in the drama often costs hundreds of thousands of dollars. Perhaps because in the TV series, Seattle Grace Hospital is not a public hospital, and most of the patients treated are upper-middle-class people. In addition to the doctors employed by insurance companies who used their professional knowledge to find loopholes and huge insurance premiums, this documentary weakened the roles of other American doctors, which made me feel that the beautiful images of the doctors in Grey should be more reflected in Canada, Enter doctors in England, France, and Cuba. Of course, this is all based on free medical security for all. When hospitals and medical workers are no longer related to their interests, patients will receive more focused treatment from them, and there will be no movies to choose which one to take based on the cost of surgery. Refers to absurd things happening. Private medical insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies bribed members of Congress to sign bills to protect their illegitimate interests. Politicians used socialist panic to fabricate lies to the public that universal health insurance could not be implemented, but Canada, the United Kingdom, and France, which are also capitalist countries, Why is there medical insurance that covers all citizens? And we, a socialist country like Cuba, have not achieved free medical insurance covering all citizens? Universal medical insurance is built on the basis of taxation. During the interview, the director did not understand why these countries should benefit those who cannot pay taxes through the taxes paid by those who can pay taxes. I think this is the sense of social responsibility.
