You think? Australians? Brits? Dutch? 26 countries with longer lives because of Cleveland? hahahahahaha.....the numbers don't add at all.
I am really thinking now. Wouldn't people even in Ohio live longer if the healthcare was so good? Yet Ohio is ranked 36th in life expectancy. Out of the 50 states + DC. Age 76.2. Who do they compare to?
(really laughing) They are FAR BELOW any country with any kind of public healthcare system at all. I won't embarress you. BUT, the good news is they are almost as good as Chile at 76.96 or Equador at 76.62. Ditto Argentina at 76.32. You know, places where you
can't drink the water. In fact, they
are just above Saudi Arabia at 75.88. Below Kuwait though. I guess those Saudis waste all that travel to add (4) months to their life. LOL......
When people in Cleveland live longer please come back and sell "Cleveland healthcare". What the "best system in the world" data is looking like is a lot of noise with no performance. Otherwise, pass out some dope, convert it to a public system, and at least match the Netherlands at a whopping, backside kicking 79.11
Are drugs still the problem Coadie or is it the stinking mess of a system you are defending?

There is no doubt in my mind that obesity which you leave out is not offset by fancier cath Labs. Childhood diabetes is booming here as is suicide. So what. Having "reformed" health insurance won't stop consumption of tons of junk foods. My daughter tried out for the Olympics in the heptathlon. Many of her classmates are chunky. We all go to the same hospitals. Our three children have had 10 friends die in the last few years. Not a single death could be prevented by an improved health insurance system.
