The study compares nations on how long and how well their populations live, everything from infant and maternal mortality statistics to the numbers on life expectancy at birth and age 50. In the 1950s, the numbers demonstrate, Americans lived in one of the world’s healthiest and long-lived nations. No more.<br /><br />“Medicine and politics,” as Dr. Bezruchka concludes, “cannot and should not be kept apart.”<br /><br /><br />http://www.annualreviews.org/eprint/iESYF775U2MwVfrxfAR2/full/10.1146/annurev-publhealth-031811-124649Bud Meyershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02065020063363023395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7895164153505105997.post-31561291302827059312012-03-29T10:52:29.874-07:002012-03-29T10:52:29.874-07:00UPDATE:

It would also be bad for consumers trying to find a health plan they can afford. Premiums for individuals who don't get insurance at work could pay up to 40 percent higher premiums, and 12 to 24 million fewer people would get coverage, according to reports compiled by America's Health Insurance Plans, an industry trade group<br /><br />The White House does not have a backup plan. Can we just do single payer already and be done with it?<br /><br />http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/03/28/supreme-court-health-care_n_1385710.html?1332964283Bud Meyershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02065020063363023395noreply@blogger.com
