Be Afraid of the Future of Healthcare - Access will be limited and very different post-covid
Covid is once again ravaging the world and the healthcare systems that people depend on. The United States spends more per person than any other country in the world yet the US does not have the best health metrics.
Covid has not helped. Hospitals are overwhelmed. Doctors, nurses and other hospital workers are at the breaking point. PPE is still limited. Elective surgeries are cancelled. Wait times are longer than ever.
The future is bleak. Many have left the profession of healthcare. I doubt many people will look eagerly to enter medical school, nursing school or some other hospital based profession. Patients will still need care. The ability to access care will be compromised. Wait times will be longer. Patients will suffer. The future is coming but it will be different and the effects of covid will leave a stain on healthcare systems for a long time.
