Although, Corona virus has effected every state negatively but US has been severily effected by this pandemic causing unpreconducted financial and human loss and the major cause for it is the capitalist driven health care system, lack of universal health care courage, health care linked with jobs, large uninsured proportion of papulation,measures health and income unequality,with one of the major reason is ineffective and inefficient stratagy of Trump administration.
Us donot provide its citizens with universal health courage, which is based upon three pillars; firstly, Equitable acces to the care, secondly; quality of health service must be good, thirdly, getting health care service donot put financial burden upon citizens.Contrary to the UHC, the rich in US has less chances to be effected because rich can afford the expensive treatements as compared to the poor.This discrimination risks the life of ethinic minorities such as Hispanies,African,Americans and the native Americans which constitute most of the poor population of Us.The deaths of Blacks constitute oveeall 30%, although black constitute 15% of the US population.
Another reason is the huge proportion of uninsured population,were about87 million before the pandemic and the health care linked with the jobs, which increase loss of job also deprieves a person from access the health. The economic recession caused by this Pandemic has loss of 26 million jobs,hence, these jobless citizens are unable to access the health care.
Profit driven health care makes phermaceeutical,health care institutions and other agencies to seek profit with less conern for health of the people.Therefore, they create an artificial shortage of basic necessary equipment Such as ;masks,sanitizers,ventilaters,glows etc to inflate the prices and earn the profits.
Irresponsible behavior of the Trump administration focuses on the blame game despite cooperating with the regional powers such as China in producing vaccine.Trump has blamed china for its inability to control the corona virus and using authoritarian policies to prevent the early information regarding spreading.Us is dependent upon the "Medical equipment"upon china , if Us continued blaming, china may stop medical exports to US ,which will have serious repurcussions for the US.
