This tragic case of a hospital-acquired infection has nothing to do with the parent comment.

The article has much more than that. Scroll down to "There’s No One Else to Pay the Bill" where it says:

"For fun, let’s imagine confiscating all the profits of all the famously greedy health-insurance companies. That would pay for four days of health care for all Americans. Let’s add in the profits of the 10 biggest rapacious U.S. drug companies. Another 7 days. Indeed, confiscating all the profits of all American companies, in every industry, wouldn’t cover even five months of our health-care expenses."
