The average American has the same life expectancy as the people from the shittiest and most impoverished part of my European country. The problem with US health and healthcare is real and much worse than in Europe.
- subsubzero 3y agoerr.. looking at data shows average life expectancy is actually higher in the US than the average in the Europe(not defending the US health care system here!): US - 79.11 years, source - https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/USA/united-states/life-expectancy https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/USA/united-states/life... Europe - 79.09 years, source - https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/eur/europe/life-expectancy https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/eur/europe/life-expect...

But yes if we want to strictly compare literally all of Europe with all of the USA then we have to get into the business of debating the merits of the Russian and Azerbaijani healthcare systems. No thanks.
