What have your experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system been like?
When we asked expats and global nomads in San Francisco about their experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system, they replied...
"The pandemic has had a significant impact on the local healthcare system in San Francisco. Many hospitals have had to reduce their services and staff due to the strain of the pandemic, leading to longer wait times and fewer available appointments. Telehealth services have become more widely available, allowing patients to access care from the comfort of their own homes. Additionally, many healthcare providers have implemented safety protocols such as temperature checks, mask requirements, and social distancing to protect both patients and staff. Despite the challenges, the healthcare system in San Francisco has been able to adapt and continue providing quality care to the community," remarked another expat in San Francisco, the United States.
