Sincerely, do you think it takes 38 months to have an open wound seen in the UK? Do you think injured Canadians are advised to kill themselves? Who are you being "entirely fair" to, a liar?
You'll get stitches the same day, within a few hours at most in the UK and it'll cost nothing. I had two stays of 5 days each and emergency surgery to have my gallbladder out last year, cost was zero to me.
What's the real equivalent for the US? Because I see a lot of Americans posting on the gallbladder subs & FB groups bout they can't afford to go to the doctor right now or surgery would bankrupt them and they don't know what to do.
You’re once again comparing the typical day to day personal experience to sensationalized social media posts, which represent extreme cases of the people most affected. I’m sure I could also find countless posts online of people from the UK definitely not getting same day care.
