Not working while ill is a fundamental human right, and as such is implemented in all European jurisdictions. There are very, very few cases when you can't exercise this right.

Not wanting to is another issue though, but it's often irrational.

It's also implemented in all U.S. jurisdictions, for everyone except for prisoners: per the 13th Amendment, no-one not convicted of a crime can be forced to perform any work.

You left out the part where they don’t have to pay you and can fire you. Not the same as in Europe.
