What have your experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system been like?
When we asked expats and global nomads in Switzerland about their experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system, they replied...
"My experiences with the local healthcare system in Switzerland during the pandemic have been positive overall. The healthcare system has been very responsive to the needs of the population, providing timely and effective care. The healthcare professionals have been very professional and caring, and the government has provided ample resources to ensure that the healthcare system is able to cope with the increased demand. The government has also implemented a range of measures to ensure that the population is kept safe, such as the introduction of contact tracing and the implementation of social distancing measures. Overall, I have been very impressed with the way the healthcare system has responded to the pandemic in Switzerland," remarked another expat who made the move to Switzerland.
