It should be a source of national shame for America that this is a reasonable precaution… but I’m glad it exists. Mexico is making a smart move.

MODERATORS
According to this ranking, Mexico beats our healthcare by quite a few spots (US is 38th and Mexico is 21st) and they have a woman president. They're kind of kicking our ass.
Mexico Healthcare
Healthcare in Mexico is a multifaceted system comprising public institutions overseen by government departments, private hospitals and clinics, and private physicians. It is distinguished by a unique amalgamation of coverage predominantly contingent upon individuals' employment statuses. Rooted in the Mexican constitution's principles, every Mexican citizen is entitled to cost-free access to healthcare and medication. This constitutional mandate was translated into reality through the auspices of the Instituto de Salud para el Bienestar (English: Institute of Health for Well-being), abbreviated as INSABI;[1] however, INSABI was discontinued in 2023.[2]
Good for them! This is sad this has to exist
Geezus!
