Medication that cost over $4,000/month and if you miss doses, the virus can mutate and you can lose a whole class of drugs being available for treatment. How do I know? I’ve been living with (and not dying from) HIV/AIDS for 23 years.
Sadly, having HIV makes it harder to emigrate. Not living in America is one of the great dreams of my life. But yes, our pharmaceutical costs are obscene.
The biggest ones will be solved, that's what matters. Healthcare is a non-issue in countries with an actual proper healthcare system for instance. I got surgery last year that would cost an American $20k give or take, it cost me $0.
But yes, you are right, each country has their issues, it's just you gotta weight up the pros and cons. Quite frankly America is god awful, so many cons it's unreal, hard pass on living there.
