> Do they use modern medicine as indiscriminately as one of us would? As someone who pays ridiculous money for a too-high-deductible insurance plan, going to the doctor is a "someone is pretty badly sick or injured" event. I have friends with a roughly zero deductible plan they get super cheap from their employer. Seems like they are at the doctor every other week. Have a tickle in your throat? Might as well go have a doctor look at it. The American health system is so vastly unequal even among the fairly well-to-do that it's honestly depressing. And that's when there isn't a global pandemic going on.
