New York, June 15 (RHC)-- In the United States, the lives of 338,000 people who died of COVID-19 could have been saved if the U.S. had a universal healthcare system.  That’s the finding of a new study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America. 

The study also estimates a universal healthcare system would have saved the United States $459 billion in healthcare costs in the year 2020.  

The study’s lead author, Alison Galvani of the Yale School of Public Health, told Scientific American: “Medicare for All would be both an economic stimulus and life-saving transformation of our health care system.  It will cost people far less than the status quo.”
