Our Universal Health Care includes subsidized prescription meds - $2 a script, no matter the total cost for those below the poverty line - covers pretty much most pensioners, those on public assistance like Mother's Allowance or Welfare, even the homeless/jobless.

Yup - our stats indicate we have about 1/3 the deaths the USA has (per capita), - but we were still slow outta the gate, and fairly high globally.

We still have too many ignoring the mask, distancing and other recommendations in my wee town - I fear we are gonna get hit bad when it gets here, and it will . . . I suspect it's lurking already

(sigh)
