That way a patient doesn’t need to move, and that minimizes the risk of spreading the virus (comparing their answer to the U.S. that really makes me wonder about the meaning of “underdeveloped”, by the way). In Argentina, there are several protocols in place, regarding airports and hotels. Since they also have universal health coverage (like most of the so called “Third World” countries in the Americas), in my opinion they have a very good opportunity to contain the disease or at least minimize the damages. As a final present, the following a map of the countries with universal healthcare. Some have much better system than others, and not in all the countries with universal healthcare attention is free. But like it happens with traffic lights, green (universal healthcare) is the best option when facing something a public menace like COVID-19, red (healthcare is not universal nor free) is the worst. The countries in blue have free but not universal healthcare —someone should paint them yellow in my opinion.
