Really?
Only thing I can think of that is (sort of) a political decision to “limit health care” is refusing to expand Medicaid.
I know that didn’t happen across the board for Republican counties/states, though, so what in the world are you claiming?
- Retric 4y agoThat wasn’t the specific example I was thinking of, but it is illustrative of such policy decisions. Credit where credit is due, Iowa and Hawaii actually rank very highly in terms of healthcare affordability and outcomes.
- belltaco 4y agoA different track, but the political decision on many on the right(media and personalities) to minimize the dangers of the virus, and demonize the vaccines caused bad outcomes. https://abcnews.go.com/Health/red-blue-america-glaring-divide-covid-19-death/story?id=83649085 https://abcnews.go.com/Health/red-blue-america-glaring-divid... https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/08/briefing/covid-death-toll-red-america.html https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/08/briefing/covid-death-toll... https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2022/03/03/the-changing-political-geography-of-covid-19-over-the-last-two-years/ https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2022/03/03/the-changing...
