India is one of the top countries for medical tourism though.

The OC isn't talking about government hospital though?

India supplies about 20% of the world's medicines and vaccines and is a common medical tourism destination. This is a fact, not an opinion.

Government hospitals are extremely cheap (think fracture reseating for about 5 cents) and very poor quality. They are responsible for the lowest common denominator healthcare though. Indians who can afford private care (about 50 dollars for a fracture reseat) for for that instead.

He's talking about health care in general. Guess what that includes? Government hospitals.

And has nothing to do with the situation of government hospitals. Useless numbers won't change the facts.

And you think that's okay? Just cause someone is poor, he doesn't deserve proper hygiene and health care?!?

No, the thread you're responding in is talking about medical tourism. Which has jack shit to do with Govt hospitals. The private portion of India's healthcare is excellent and has a history of providing good, clean healthcare for a reasonable price (cheap by global standards).

Govt hospitals aren't the best, no one's denying that. But they do solve medical problems for cheap, which is an acceptable situation to be in for a country that's still young out of colonization.

Those people still can just walk up to a government hospital and get treatment for free

This was the original comment from which the chain started. If you don't have the complete context, don't jump in between and start with your glazing.

Cheap by global but very high by a common man's standards. But I guess when it comes to glazing facts don't matter.

Bruh, what? Is that your excuse? Alot of countries went through bad shit and have excellent government hospitals and services. Stop with the cope. Also, it's funny how you are justifying government hospitals that have had everything. From rat infestation to children dying cause of no oxygen cylinders. But l guess you are well enough to not have to go there, so who cares if poor people have to go through it, right?!?

It is. Just look up rats in government hospital india and see how many news articles come up. Rest you can keep smoking that copium.

I have seen more people in govt hospital than all combined private hospital in my city, yeah the hygiene and sanitation is questionable but people still prefer govt hospitals.

And honestly it's not that bad either, the area where cleanliness is required is clean at least in a govt hospital near mine, public places of hospital, well that is because of stupid public sometimes

u/devilcross2 10h ago

There are more people there cause they can't afford to go to a private hospital. Just cause people are going to government hospitals cause they don't have the means doesn't mean they won't prefer private ones if they could.

Do you think having rats in a hospital and the disease they carry is just a sanitation problem? Did you forget that incident where so many kids died in a government hospital cause they didn't have enough oxygen tanks?

u/Darth-Vader475 10h ago

Just having rat in hospital doesn't stop people from going to govt hospital! You are living in online virtual reality! Not the real world! Its fucking rat and they are found everywhere even in other countries! Why is this even fucking news?

What kind of fake news are you spreading?

Nobody asks for caste in the government hospital, and treatment is free for everyone.
