I wonder if we would have survived this thing if it was this costly to deal with. God help humanity. |

born2lead01: Maybe. But am still wondering why the situation seems to be so different over there. I mean we used little to achieve much but they are using even too much trying to get the same result. Does it mean they are wasteful? |

samuelson06: No,they are not being wasteful but they practice the ideal holistic care. In Nigeria for instance, if I'm having fever and go to any hospital, the doctor will only ask for the symptoms and check for the signs of malaria and place me on antimalaria drugs with little or no test done. In western world however,lot of tests will be carried out to arrive at appropriate diagnosis before treatment. That accounts for the seemingly high cost of treatments over there and don't forget that most hospitals over there are run like private establishment. |

born2lead01: It's good anyway. But at times, they end up doing some unnecessary things in a bid trying to attend to every detail. |
