I thought socialized medicine was wonderful and the Norwegians were the happiest people in the world.
Except for the ones still pining for the fjords.
But if she were muslim?
“I thought socialized medicine was wonderful and the Norwegians were the happiest people in the world.”
Just another reason why I would not want to live anywhere BUT THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. I am so thankful that I was born in America. This should give everyone pause to think of our wonderful country.

So who DID pay for the treatment? And how much did it cost?
But real medical care ?
America is such a great country...Norway...
I look at socialist vs. free market health care coverage as analogous to veterinary medicine for livestock vs. pets. Ranchers want the biggest bang for the buck, so they invest in preventatives like vaccines, but spend very little if an animal develops a more serious disorder. Pet owners, OTOH, care less about the expense and more about a positive outcome, so they are willing to spend much more than the rancher on care for individual animals.
That is socialized medicine: go all out on the minor stuff, but set limits on spending on serious diseases.
I'm sure it take decades of research and FDA approval costing, on average, nearly a billion dollars to bring any new drug to market. I see the article states she is in an immunotherapy study so I'm guessing that Capitalism is funding this. Venture capitalists buy stocks in bioresearch firms. They then short and use options to manage their risks as the majority of studies will fail to achieve good results.
Socialist systems are not capable of doing this type of cutting edge research. However, I have heard some people say that Europeans are the FDA's favorite lab rat.
Thanx !
Has she overstayed her visa? How is she here legally?
Norwegian Blue…lovely plumage
Norway stop complaining to us, complain to the EU,
for all the good it will do you.
It says she is a working MD in the article. At least she makes some contribution to her care I imagine unlike the invaders who get it all free on the taxpayers.
what kind of talk is that??
This woman sounds like another liberal who got mugged, this time by socialized medicine. Wonder if her entire world view has been changed, or just a “woe is me” because of the specific medical situation and its effect on her entire life.
