The 3 are connected.  All our doctors and hospitals are very busy. We need to add to medical school budgets, train more doctors and have emergency clinics and supplies ready.  Test labs are important. We are underprepared for fallout, epidemics etc.  We are just "getting by" on the medical front (if you ignore the uninsured - which is, of course, a mistake and unfair.)   More of everything medical is needed to handle PRESENT health care needs alone, much more if there is a crisis .
