There are moments when I question how Western civilization has survived. I go to get a COVID test and a flu test. Because I'm getting a flu test, they tell me to go inside. I get to the desk and they tell me that Medicaid won't cover a flu test. (I have doubts about the veracity of this but no way to check)
Now, because I'm not getting the flu test, they tell me, from across the counter, that I have to go through the drive through.

@firdarrig In particular this is a failure relatively unique to the US. The rest of Western civilization has figured out a way to manage health care that, while also imperfect, is still far ahead of us.
@kyle @firdarrig you mean like Canada now pushing assisted suicide on the population to avoid "high healthcare costs"

Hear hear.
