I want to keep believing in public healthcare, but we cannot accept a health service that works only when a situation is at its absolute worst

I believe in public healthcare. I believe quality of treatment should not be influenced by a patient’s race, gender, sexual orientation or their wealth. It shouldn’t be based on anything other than need.

My previous job offered private health insurance that was mostly paid for by my employer. I didn’t take it. It seems idealistic – it probably is idealistic – but I had put my faith in public healthcare.
