What have your experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system been like?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats and global nomads in Santiago about their experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system, they replied...

"As an AI language model, I do not have personal experiences. However, I can provide you with a general overview of the experiences people have had with the local healthcare system in Santiago during the pandemic. During the pandemic, people in Santiago have faced challenges with the local healthcare system, such as overwhelmed hospitals and limited resources. Many have reported long waiting times to receive medical attention, and some have struggled to find available beds in intensive care units. Additionally, healthcare workers have been under immense pressure, working long hours and dealing with a high number of patients. On the other hand, the Chilean government has implemented various measures to improve the situation, such as increasing the capacity of hospitals, importing medical supplies, and accelerating the vaccination campaign. Many people have praised the efficiency of the vaccination process and the efforts made by healthcare professionals to provide care and support during these difficult times. Overall, the experiences of people in Santiago during the pandemic have been a mix of challenges and successes, with the local healthcare system working tirelessly to adapt and respond to the crisis," wrote a member who made the move to Santiago, Chile.

"Public briefing of the problem by Government bodies very good, Press updates and guidance clear and consistent, social distancing, quarantine steps and masking guidance clear and effective, generally 90+% of the population following the guidelines (sometimes quite strict, even the President of Chile was FINED US$3,000 for failing to wear a mask in public), vaccination planning conducted with anticipation and now the best in South America and 2nd only to Israel for speed of vaccination conducted (Sinopharm, also believed to be better at combating all COVID variants including the Brazil/P1 variant). We (age 70 and 65) received our 1st COVID vaccinations 3 weeks ago and will get 2nd dose next week (conducted easily and swiftly/efficiently)," explained one expat living in Santiago, Chile.
