Third world medicine at its best!

Too don’t hear India whining, but they bought into hydroxychlorine fairly early. Hell, they even supply it to several countries. At least they didn’t turn down medicine because it was highly politicized.

Brazil and Venezuela probably can’t stop you from dying after an infection in the toe. Not sure why they are going to do for anything else.

Brazil has one of the most effective public health systems in the world. Specially considering the country's size. It's not perfect, but it's very, very, far from letting anyone die from an infection in the toe.

I can't speak for Venezuela, but you are entirely wrong about Brazil.

Anecdotally, my experience with Brazil has been great health care in the private hospitals. Not so much in the public...
