who were uninsured pre-pandemic. Many Americans are perpetually on the edge of falling into medical debt, with 1 in 3 people reporting that they wouldn't be able to cover an unexpected $400 medical bill without borrowing money or selling their belongings.
"Of course that will have a bearing on health insurance, because so many of us have our health insurance through our jobs," Bassett said. Medical debt and ill health are risk factors for being homeless, he explained."When you lose housing, you’re more susceptible to a lot of health issues. People who have health issues are more likely to lose housing," Beletsky said. Without reliable and affordable health services, the homeless lean heavily on the hospital system.
"We basically help when it's too late. It costs a lot of money, requires heroic interventions and people continue being sick," he added.
you mean structual*?
And last but not least the failures of the media!
TrumpOwnsEveryDeath
Why aren't we talking about ObamaGate trending worldwide with over 2million retweets
More fear porn... yawn
Is directionless flailing a structural problem😳❓ Yeah, I know, 1/10th of a % know what they want😡👎 The rest of HAVEN'T a CLUE...
No, it reflects the evil desires of a small subset of humans to have control of and power over the rest of the humans on the planet. ObamaGate ArmyForTrump
And a society can only fail when it's so-called leaders don't think and act accordingly for the sake of Society.
We've needed MedicareForAll forever
It's a failure of Republican ideology just like the rest of the last three years.
TOO LATE
At this time, the biggest failure is sitting in the Oval Office.

Not a smidgen but MOUNTAINS OF CORRUPTION. John Podesta admitted under oath the DNC and the Hillary Campaign split the cost of the Fake Trump-Russia dossier.
COVID is a nursing home issue not a national health crisis warranting the manufacturing by government of a depression and widening wealth gap. Even with nursing home deaths, which are a solid 30% of COVID deaths, the US is still running at 98% of expected deaths as of May 8. How?
The people are tired of it, OBAMAGATE
Evidently on how to take care of our “elderly and at risk” citizens. Shame on those governors for allowing reckless rules kill our elderly in nursing homes!
Whole population is over 330 million, cases are no where near that. Deaths are even farther behind that. Report the news, don't push narratives
Hospitals emptied out very fast so your argument is null.
This election will not be based on sexual assault allegations, being an ass by tweeting too much, or an undivided Democratic Party. Voters who are employed, furloughed, unemployed or own businesses will vote for the one with the experience and capability to bring back the economy
im so bored lol 🙎🏽
There R no cracks.
there is no cracks in the health system it's only democrat states that did not have there hospitals prepared and it showed, Now doctors and nurses are being laid off no patients, How the virus exposed how corrupt our media and democrats really are and how much they lie
System? Jejeje. Gahagay who you kidding? Want healthcare, ask you momma!
There's nothing wrong with the healthcare system...obama fixed it.
Cracks? You mean canyons and valleys right?
Does this mean the U.S. won't be able to hold it's 27th ranking...?
Way bigger than cracks
One of the great things about Obamacare is that it focused on preventative medicine. People were counseled on obesity, diet, keeping their B.P. In check, etc. Trump is taking us backwards by sabotaging what little healthcare the poor and middle class have available to them. Sad!
We know how to contain the disease, yet thousands of people refuse to do something as simple as social distancing., and then complain they don’t have good enough healthcare when they spread the virus in their own community.
You talking about the glorious Obama healthcare? TrumpWarRoom
Gloom and doom garbage
I would say because of private healthcare we have done a fantastic job handling this virus. Open your dang eyes
It's really exposing how blacks and other minorities are not treated equally in the healthcare system
That’s not surprising considering that the USA has the highest obesity rate in the world.
Not like a certain Senator was explaining this for decades- but wait till thousands die in short period to answer the clue phone HelloSomebody BernieSanders
Lets make America great with less people who have died of the Corvid-19 virus and we can build a better economy. Hey what are a few less 100,00 or so American to make the U.S. economy great..surrrrrrre Mr Toupee! JACKASS!
Republicans insisted that we had the best healthcare system in the world. They lied.... ......TO YOU, TRUMPERS. We knew better. That’s why we fought to pass the ACA. You fought to retain this fiasco. You share the blame for 78,000 dead Americans. Happy now?
This Chinese virus has approved to the world that US is a third world country wearing a Gucci belt
It’s also unveiling the cracks in the US education system. Logic is not taught due to some unknown reason; my assumption is that they don’t want to offend religions. 😷
Keep that fear mongering going!
By canceling elective surgeries and cancer screenings?
This is Trump's fault
if u need satisfy maybe i can help you with my pics
RealDLHughley Funny how they didnt believe there were holes in the system when people were telling them the same damn thing.
😱 you mean our CAPITALIST health care system isn't bullet proof, gee.
A huge takeaway needs to be nursing homes! So under staffed in most cases.
RealDLHughley No shit Sherlock it's almost as if universal health care would be a good thing and not the rebirth of communism.
Of course it is...it’s a 100 year pandemic! Make it better and move on..what problem solvers do.
WH needs to hold Oversight Hearings to expose those responsible. People are not accepting fake news distractions. Many of these biochemistry lab workers are being silent.
wholefoodzwhore THIS ARTICLE IS NEW LEVEL AIRHEAD,DONT KNOW WHAT THE HELL IS GOING HAVE TO WRITE IT SHOWS THE LEVEL/THE BUBBLE THE LIBERAL/POLITICAL BELTWAY IS. erinlschumaker but at least it was written
Doctors and hospitals are capitalists first, then healers second...shameful in their rapacious greed and arrogance!
Cracks? More like abysses ... bottomless pits
AnayasaNevzat
Not in US only but world wide .
Wow
But...
America does not have a healthcare system, it has an insurance system.
🤣😂🤣😂
Cracks? More like completely broken...
Correction : America DOES NOT have a healthcare system! You pay and get treated in not healthcare!
Cambridgeport90 If by “cracks” you mean “fraud”, then indeed.
Gee, you think? If there was ever a time to reset and try something different and new, this would be it.
Haha yeah like how hospitals receive funding
Do you want this here in Britain? It will come if Boris has his way. Do not forget that this government aims to dismantle the Welfare State.
Damn. I guess the decades of prioritizing profits over our well-being wasn’t enough.
When it’s the size of the Grand Canyon to begin with, it doesn’t take much.
Canyons
Ya think?🧐
Sure is holding up than most of Western Europe. Our death is much lower. And all I’ve heard the last two decades is how much better their health system is.
Racist UnitedStates Health System...let us call a spade...of what is a racist Spade...
COVID-19 has played itself out with all of your cry-wolf reporting.
Obama😷 '..manufacturers of personal protective equipment in mid-2009 urged “immediate action” to restock N95 masks. The International Safety Equipment Association warned of “significant shortages” if another pandemic caused demand for masks to surge.'
FakeNews
Pretty sure that ship sailed long ago.
MedicareForAll
Cracks in our health care system? More like giant earthquake faults.
Seems Medical Professionals are more accurate than those online hoax tellers are 🤔
Fuck COVID19 and anyone that dues if it. We're all dying from poverty, mental illness and fear. I want my old life back...even if I have to die to get it back. What's wrong with us? This has already gone too far. We're all going to die anyway. 100%
Majority of hospitals around the u.s. sit empty!!!!! 50% of counties in the US have zero cases of Coronavirus!
Those are historic high numbers, but the American people want them higher.
You don’t need an expert to see the cracks in America’s healthcare system.
Summary: Obesity and metabolic problems caused by poor nutrition.
The US got nothing on Canada. JustinTrudeau nice health care system monsieur
'when did America become ADX Florence, CO' -flexa- KellyannePolls

Cracks? I dunno about cracks. Big gaping holes? Huge gashes? Giant voids? All for top dollar!
Ya don't say.....🙄
I guess I’m an expert
El primer error: llamarle a esa estructura maligna Sistema de Salud. Claro, los gringos pasan con la cabeza hundida en el culo y no se dan cuenta de nada.
Trump and GOP Genocide.
