The Kids are Alright - in the US
The BBC tells the tale of a remarkable set of identical quadruplets:
Canada is a country of over 30 million people. Great Falls is a city of fewer than 60,000. Why did a Canadian couple have to drive hundreds of miles across a border before they could find a routinely small city with enough medical technology to treat their problem, rather than using technology in their own country? Hint: your answer will involve the phrase "single-payer."
Universal health care, until such time as you really need it. Hat tip: Thomas Lifson.
A Canadian woman has given birth to extremely rare identical quadruplets.
The four girls were born at a US hospital because there was no space available at Canadian neonatal intensive care units.
Karen Jepp and her husband JP, of Calgary, were taken to a Montana hospital where the girls were delivered two months early by Caesarean section.
Autumn, Brooke, Calissa and Dahlia are in good condition at Benefis Hospital in Great Falls, Montana.
