Ilhan Omar Thinks Socialized Medicine Can Fight Coronavirus – Ignores Fact Coronavirus Is from Socialized Medicine Country

Take China, a nation struggling to cover all of its people via a socialized system.

It's where the outbreak started - and where the government response has been to silence whistleblowers and build field hospitals because their current system can't take care of the victims.

100%. 0%. A 2018 profile of China's health care system by The New York Times revealed plenty of cracks.

"An economic boom over the past three decades has transformed China from a poor farming nation to the world's second-largest economy. The cradle-to-grave system of socialized medicine has improved life expectancy and lowered maternal mortality rates," Sui-Lee Wee wrote.

The country is actually re-socializing its health care after free market reforms in 1984.

There's nothing anyone can hold up to say that our system, patchwork though it may be, is doing worse when it comes to coronavirus than any state-run system, including China's.

This is to say nothing of the fact that Omar is currently attacking the governments for its response to coronavirus yet wants government to take over all of our health care, presumably under the premise that people who believe like her will always be running it.
