Blue Thunder: China Cancer hotels show the nationwide healthcare misery


China has a nationwide healthcare problem, especially with cancer.  There is one of few cancer hospitals in west Beijing, where poor families have to sell everything they own in order to seek treatment.  This makes cancer an extremely painful issue to both physical and financial life.

What do you think China or the US can do to aid healthcare to people in China?

cancer is a serious issue and people do not CHOOSE to get it. therefore they should not have to overpay to get treated by it. china should make healthcare less expensive and at least somewhat affordable. or perhaps cheaper to the lower class citizens

health care has always been an issue financially unfortunately there will be high costs for treatment because the treatment is extremely expensive. so until treatment gets cheaper china will just have to pay.

China should be doing everything they are capable of to financially assist the people who already have enough to deal as far as their cancer diagnosis.

Getting diagnosed with cancer is a terrible hardship as it is, paying for expensive treatment shouldn't be another extra weight on the patients and their family. Imagine having to sell all of your possessions for treatment that might not even work. This is heart breaking

China should try to help assist these people as much as they can.

Since cancer affects so many around the world it is a global issue that will kill millions till it is solved. China's healthcare should be more considerable to their cancer patients and make payment plans more affordable to help their people. To make treatment more accessible it will be a step closer to resolving the global issue.

They can get more doctors to help everyone and get all the medicine that is needed.

I think that the U.S. should find people who are willing to go out to China and help those who are suffering with cancer. Then they can organize China's hospitals better and bring new ways to help cure them or prevent it.

I think that this is a horrible cause of the Chinese government and that they should be the be the ones fixing this problem. I don't think that this is something that our government should be concerned with.

China needs to be more considerate of their citizens and care for their wellbeing. All China cares about right now is attaining their goals to be an economic superpower and has no care for its citizens. It's time for China to change and help aid its citizens by providing better medical help and giving better living conditions. Otherwise, if a nation decides to help empower the suffering citizens, a revolt could ensue.

I think this problem needs to be more advertised so the public is more aware. With more people involved, they can offer more help making it easier and affordable to the people

I think they can make programs to help these families to give them shelter and adequate necessities. They shouldn't have to give up everything.

As tristan said i dont think this is something the US should be trying to fix. China needs to step up and take care of its citizens rather than trying to be an economic superpower.
