Trump’s response has been inadequate but the system is rigged anyway. As always, the poor will be hit hardest

Dr Anthony S Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and just about the only official in the Trump administration trusted to tell the truth about the coronavirus, said last Thursday: “The system does not, is not really geared to what we need right now … It is a failing, let’s admit it.”

Ah, a public health system You mean like in Italy, Spain and the UK?

So sad for people, land of the free my bum

How does this help other than spread fear and panic?

We'll see how great a nation it is now.

Good luck US

The guardian seems pretty passionate and concerned about others nations health systems giveitarest

. Started to click on the article...then saw who wrote it. Hard pass.

Yeah, went to a good mph program and dropped out halfway through. I love the field, except there’s not much future in it.

Hope all Americans die🥳🥳🥳

Anything public requires spending at that offended Sarah Palin and her Tea Party, didn’t it?

YES , we B screwed.

We also know the virus can re-infect survivors, so the UK sacrfice will be for nothing, and beyond terrible. We need a lockdown as soon as possible.

Capitalism, specifically the private healthcare system, may be the death of America. This isnt just 'market failure', its a death sentence for many.

The U.S.A. is broken and this is going to destroy it even more.

Sounds like good news for America...coz then the real treatment will be achieved, human acquired immunity

Such nonsense.

What would we expect!till 🇨🇳came around for the pass 35 yrs has been nightmares n still going!No human being would want this spread 2 the world expect china!N all planned USA does not have evil 👿 thinking like a low class country which should have been deleted centuries ago!

America would have a public health system if it actually bothered to properly fund a public health system instead of playing language games with the populace to trick people into turning on each other... yes i mean fox news and the dual party system... be better...

Instead of a public health system, we have a private for-profit system for individuals lucky enough to afford it and a rickety social insurance system for people fortunate enough to have a full-time job. Hopefully, this will now start to change.

Thanks for the drop off move out

The poor will barely notice what's coming. It's the spoiled middle class that begged for the country to be shut down that will feel it the most. Most have no idea what it's like to be unemployed, homeless, nor hungry.

Hey Bob Medicare - ring a bell ?
