COVID's a pretty good argument against libertarianism; I think this is a pretty ~weak one. Any time you have an industry that's largely non-private, the private parts of it are probably going to be weird.
E.g., private schools tend to cater to the wealthy. But it's not generally true that highly privatized industries cater to the wealthy. Private schools cater to the wealthy because public schools exist, which makes it very difficult for a private school to compete at "lower price points".
