Doctors have always been my most respected profession, because they can most directly relieve at least the pain of others. I still remember that at the beginning of the film "The Best of Youth", the professor of medicine commented on Nicola's defense: "The most important thing for doctors is compassion." I think there is no shortage of this element. However, I have no lack of understanding of China's medical system. In this country, things are upside down: if you are determined to be a doctor, you have to give up extra compassion.
Doctors in Chinese public hospitals must have the basic psychological qualities: a patient lies on the floor outside the emergency room and groans. Treatable. The reason is very simple. If you take him in, the dean will call you to the office the next day and say to you earnestly: "Young man, I can understand your sympathy, but I also have difficulties, you know, That person can’t afford the medical bills.” You argued desperately: “But, if you don’t receive treatment, he will die.” The dean had no choice but to showdown: “Well then, how about you pay for his medical bills? How about paying two in advance? Wan."
I am quite sure and surely believe that if I were that doctor, I would commit suicide due to a mental breakdown within three years. I never deny that I am not a strong-willed person.
To make matters worse, I also don't have enough courage and ability to challenge this system. Therefore, I had no choice but to escape.
Unfortunately, the people of the country I chose to asylum are also plagued by similar problems.
——This long paragraph was told by Mike, and there is no need to add it.
Personal experience as proof. At the beginning of the year, a toothache broke out and I had to go to the dentist as a last resort. Was shocked by the charging standards. Fortunately, a leftist American friend who also had the same financial constraints pointed out that he found a sympathetic clinic for the poor and dealt with it rashly to avoid bankruptcy.
Fortunately, it's just a toothache.
If Obama’s health care reform fails in the end, I swear I will walk side by side with my friends on the street. Although the American health insurance has nothing to do with me, at least I still retain that little sympathy for surviving.
Eleven, someone is watching the military parade, I watch Sicko. My compatriots say that we should be proud of our strong motherland, and I have no objection. It's just that instead of looking forward to a country that relies on airplanes and missiles to show its strength, I would rather imagine a small country where everyone has medical insurance. I believe that the few heroic American patients who had escaped to Cuba, the evil socialist country, and were treated with Mike's blessing must also agree with my idea.
Attachment: According to the ranking published by WHO in 2000 (the one quoted by Mike in the film), the United States ranks 37, China ranks 144, and Burundi ranks 143, which is the African country that often fought civil wars.
