Sick Around the World

T. R. Reid is a foreign correspondent for the Washington Post. In 2007-08 he put together a film showing how five rich countries provide universal healthcare for their citizens. (The U.S. is not one of the five.) His film, "Sick Around the World" appeared on PBS' Frontline last April, and it will play again, on Sunday, August 9th, right here at the Adult Forum. The film is almost 60 minutes long, so it will start at 9:45.
Please join us. You'll be totally amazed! Other wealthy nations have actually figured out how to do healthcare for way less money than we spend. If you know a congressman, encourage them to come along. They will be amazed, too! As always, all are welcome.
