Michigan, absentee ballots have gone out. The election is HERE.
Make sure you have a plan to vote by November 3rd to get money out of politics, put money in pockets, and pass Medicare for All!

Thanx @thapagk for pursuing Universal Health Coverage with national health insurance as its central flagship. Hope we can forge an all-party national consensus to make Nepal an exemplar of UHC, learning from relevant experience of other countries. @MOHPnepal @WHO @unicef_nepal.
Happy UHC Day Everyone.
Why not celebrate by leaving the forces of darkness that run X and come an join us on BlueSky:

Absolutely Cheryl this has been the story in India too where the AAP Govts in Delhi and Punjab have launched UHC reforms to challenge Modi. Any suggestions as to where this might happen CA? NY?

And might the Trump honeymoon be short-lived if he explicitly reduces health coverage? theguardian.com/us-news/2024…
I'm guessing @yates_rob 's theory on UHC as a potential election gamechanger in our dystopian conspiracy polycrisis times also still needs a bit of "tweaking" nytimes.com/2024/11/04/us/po… . Sadly.
Ah ha yes - absolutely true that the US will be moving away from UHC in the next few years but there is plenty of scope for new leader to champion UHC as a response to the inevitable post Trump chaos

How can a country be serious about UHC when it alllows its hospitals to lock up babies because their families can't pay the medical bills ?thenationonlineng.net/imo-jo…
User fees are a barbaric way of funding a health system standardmedia.co.ke/article/… #

Why is this important? 🧐
Fragmentation between GHS & UHC routinely leads to policy incoherence + weakened health systems.
We saw this during #COVID19, Ebola, Zika, etc.
Understanding their shared past can inform effective integration moving forward.
