As a result, there is another divergence. We may have risk stocks higher but we also have haven bonds and the yen higher. The japanese yen now up a fourth day in a row. It tells you not everybody is believing not just the rally today but the rally we have had in recent weeks. David in fairness, you cannot blame investors if they do not know exactly which way this is going. Thing started up a bit and then came down. Some of the stocks that have been beaten down came back. That is a big piece of the rally. One reason some strategists and traders do not like it in terms of the companies that had been january,y the virus in february, and march such as the Leisure Companies and the airlines, there has been a bounceback over last few weeks. Some say the rally off of the lows in march, there are holes. If you look at the s p 500, there is a huge move down from the peak to the trough. Now we are halfway back up. It is hard to know which side and what the greater risk is to the upside. Do not f
All legal residents residing in france. It is not, i repeat, it is not an example of socialized medicine like cuba. It is also not a National Health service as in the United States united kingdom. It is also not an instance of a government run Health System like our excellent Veterans Health administration. French National Health insurance in contrast is an example of public, social security, and private Health Care Financing combined with a diverse publicprivate mix in the provision of Health Care Services. The French Health care system reflects three political values embraced by americans. Liberalism in the sense of giving patients free choice of any doctor or any hospital they care to go to, with no networks, no restrictions. Second, pluralism. Everybody has a diverse choice. They can go to feeforservice, solo practitioners. They can go to group practices. They can go to Outpatient Health centers. The computer emergency risk, public or private hospital, consultations with specialist
The issue of wait times, when it comes to emergent care, canadians are not waiting substantially longer than our peers in other countries including the United States. Unfortunately, it was true that has not been the case for medical care such as nondiagnostic imaging. A great deal of work was underway to address this challenge. And indeed, waits have been decreasing over the last decade. It is important to note that moving away from a single payer model would likely exacerbate our wait time challenge rather than alleviate it by drawing Critical Health Human Resources out of the public system. This is bourn out by International Evidence from other jurisdictions such as australia. The canadian system is proof that Public Health Care Insurance need not be provided federally in order to achieve the benefits of the single payer model. In canada, each province provides Public Health Care Insurance to its residents with minimum standards set at the federal level. Furthermore, moving to single
Performance is called avoidable mortality. That is in a Good Health Care system, women should not die in child birth. People should not die of tuberculosis. People should not die of aschemic Heart Disease. People should not die of cancers that can be cured. And when we look at that, im embarrassed to say that we come out in the United States as 19 and the french come out as number 1, i repeat, number 1. That is a fact that cannot be ignored. It must be addressed. It was written up in health affairs, a reputable journal. It was confirmed with different measures by the oecd, and it has not received in my judgment sufficient discussion. Another indicator of how well a system is doing and a theme of this subcommittee that i know is dear to chairman sanders is access to primary care. You can talk about primary care until youre blue in the face, but lets look at the consequences of whether you receive primary care or not in Different Health care systems. We have a very established measure of
