Why Health Care is Cheap in Canada - The Value of a human life is $1.33

2005-05-31 at 6:02 pm · Filed under Uncategorized

Canada Red Cross used HIV blood

The gist is that the Red Cross up there messed up and distributed HIV positive and Hepatitis infected blood and 3,000 people died as a result. In the ensuing case, it was found they were negligent and they face a fine of $4,000. That means they are liable for $1.33 per person killed.

In the US if they did this, do you think they’d get by with only a $4,000 slap?
