What have your experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system been like?
When we asked expats and global nomads in United States 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 the United States. Many hospitals and healthcare facilities have had to adjust their operations to accommodate the influx of patients with COVID-19. This has led to longer wait times for appointments and treatments, as well as a shortage of medical supplies and personnel. Additionally, many healthcare providers have had to shift to telemedicine services to provide care to patients remotely. This has allowed for more efficient and safe care, but has also created challenges for those without access to technology or reliable internet. Despite these challenges, healthcare providers have worked hard to ensure that patients receive the care they need during this difficult time," explained one expat living in United States.
