Lack of MRIs and surgeons, buddy, can kill you just as dead as no care at all.

AND access to those expensive MRI machines can save you from unnecessary surgey AND make necessary surgery more effective by telling surgeons in advance of the first cut what they will encounter.

There used to be a great deal of "exploratory surgery" - open you up to see what was going in inside. Now it's almost extincr- -at least in the US. The reason is that physicians, through advanced electronic imaging techniques, can KNOW that without lifting a scalpel.

You seem to be in the position of defending a system that puts your life and other people's lives in unnecessary danger.
