When the first U.S. swine flu death occurred, everyone grew alarmed and alert. The doctors offices were flooded with those who believed they had the disease.
Even though most of these cases were (thankfully) psychosomatic, the doctors visits did cost money, and those who got the doctors to write prescriptions probably went straight to the pharmacy to get their antibiotics.
This whole situation was appalling for those without health insurance policies. When a fear grows to a hysteria as the fear of swine flu did, Americans don't care if they have health insurance or not; they're going to the doctor come hell or high water. And they will pay for those expensive antibiotics, too.
Millions of people in the U.S. don't have health insurance, but the need for it is great - especially for families with children. The risk of sudden illness or an accident is too big to ignore, and most health insurance policies are so low that it's a very sound investment.
Antibiotics can cost hundreds of dollars without coverage, and doctor visits can be pricey, too. As for broken bones? We're talking thousands upon thousands.
There are always going to be viruses going around. Some just happen to get more coverage than others. It's crucial to be prepared for every illness and every accident.
