Indeed!

Antibiotics and Insulin - those two things have saves untold lives.

Before about 1920, the difference between rich and poor and the likelihood to recover from disease had more to do with ability to rest and diet.

The rich and poor alike died to tuberculosis (which was often a death sentence until antibiotics), simple cysts, all sorts of very basic bacterial infections killed in droves.

At the risk of sidetracking this further - it was only after insulin where the idea that healthcare could be somewhat that could be a right became somewhat reasonable (before the late gilded age, doctors often did as much harm as good) - every lifesaving innovation we have made sense, were often very modest amounts of money is the difference between life and death make that argument stronger.
