Public health and public benefit

Description

(approx. 150 words)
Please describe the Wild Card (approx. 150 words)
Public health systems are being overtaken by individually targeted private health insurance, based on bio-geno-toxic tracing methods and intensive lifestyle management. Most EU public health systems are rapidly privatized in 2016-17, and this helps to pay for the government deficits caused by the banking crisis.
