Argentina
What have your experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system been like?
When we asked expats and global nomads in Argentina about their experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system, they replied...
"The pandemic has had a significant impact on the healthcare system in Argentina. The government has implemented a number of measures to try to contain the spread of the virus, including the closure of non-essential services, the suspension of elective surgeries, and the implementation of social distancing measures. Despite these efforts, the healthcare system has been overwhelmed by the number of cases, leading to long wait times for appointments and tests, and a shortage of medical supplies. Additionally, the pandemic has caused a financial strain on the healthcare system, with many hospitals and clinics struggling to stay afloat. Despite these challenges, the healthcare system in Argentina has been able to provide quality care to those in need," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Argentina.
"My step-daughter is a hospital doctor in the city and anecdotal evidence is that they are dealing with the emergency much better than many of the countries expats have come from," commented one expat who made the move to Buenos Aires , Argentina.
