The common cold, sure. But have you seen a Japanese hospital? Nasty and dirty. Even St. Lukes in tokyo. I am petrified of Japanese medicine. My wife who went to John Hopkins for her check up and physical was shocked. She will never go to another japanese hospital again. lol We fly to America about every other month. She would rather wait till we get to America to see a doctor. I dont blame her.

I am sure the people who live here canback me up on this one.

Remember the hospital that was doing blood transfusions with HIV+ blood? Then they swore it was not their fault and found a way to blaim the government?

Even if you say that, I'm sure there are Japanese using them. Not everything is what it seems; perhaps you should try asking them personally? Maybe I was wrong about the health of the general population there, but surely a person like Dr Kyoichi Nakagawa would have major medical influences on the nation, if not, a tad?

I did not say that, I said they were *one of* the most healthiest. Then again, that depends on your definition of the phrase.

P.S. I'm not tryna start anything here, people. It's just my way of clarifying stuff and ensuring the public obtains reliable & up-to-date information, so my deepest apologies if I said something outta my league.
