Because the govt doesnt give a fcuk and would rather have you die then spend money on you
Whenever i go to Ukraine, i bring drugs with me because they dont have any for things like Diabetes
True story: My great grandmother at 88 years old fell and broke her hip and when we called the ambulance, they said they werent coming because they dont come for those older then 70. They said we'd have to transport her ourself and we did

in canada they make a tylenol/codeine mix that you can get over the counter. it's not a super high end pain med but it's got to help. you get them for pennies here. i want to send some out there. like seriously.

To be fair many European countries have excellent healthcare.
Countries from the former USSR often have a very corrupt bureaucracy which often leads to horrible health care.
But West Europe in general have excellent Health care, like France and the UK.
Italy also have great healthcare or used to have.
Sweden, where I live used to have excellent Health care before they Americanized it.
