alt Hacker News"Bad health care" is what you have in Peru with nonexistent state services and thoroughly incompetent doctors. Turkey's is middle-of-the-road, which is actually pretty decent for a lot of the life-saving interventions for mainstream diseases. The life expectancy is three years lower than the EU, which is, again, not bad by any stretch of the imagination.
If you don't fall through the cracks because of cronyism, corruption, or neglect it's somehow helpful with mainstream diseases. That's the level of healthcare.
Life expectancy in these regions is mostly from diet, lifestyle, avoiding wars, and at times from avoiding the healthcare actually.
