This 26-Year-Old Took Her Friend To A Music Festival's Medical Tent To See A Doctor Because It Was Cheaper Than A Hospital Visit
"They saw him right away, checked his pulse, blood pressure, eyes, verbal and motor functions, and gave him some Benadryl."At this point, I think every American citizen knows US healthcare is ridiculously expensive.
BuzzFeed reached out to Cami to learn more about her experience. She explained that her friend started developing a sore throat on the first day of the festival."The next morning, we made sure he didn’t have COVID-19, but his throat was still hurting," Cami said."He said he was going to go to the hospital, instead of day two of the festival.
"General admission tickets for the festival started at $200, and we got to listen to Blink-182 in the background while we waited. Do you get to see a rock band when you go to a regular hospital? I don’t think so," Cami jokingly said.Cami, who is originally from Brazil, told BuzzFeed that growing up, she always had access to affordable healthcare in her home country."I was born in Brazil, where the healthcare system works and it’s free.
