CDC: record number of Americans have health insurance

Original post made by healthy neighborhoods, Menlo Park: Fair Oaks, on May 17, 2016

Never before have over 90% of Americans been covered with health insurance.

Oh, sure, thanks Obama!!

"During the fourth quarter of last year, just 9.1 percent of U.S. residents, or 28.6 million people, had no health coverage, the National Health Interview Survey found. That’s a decline of 2.4 percentage points and 7.4 million people from a year before.

The additional 7.4 million insured builds on the 8.8 million previously uninsured people who got covered in 2014, the first year of the Affordable Care Act’s full benefits. […]

The CDC data demonstrate that 16.2 million fewer people were uninsured during the fourth quarter of 2015 than at the end of 2013."


16 million Americans now have another reason to vote for progress, to vote Democratic. Here's a wild thought - what if Republican politicians actually enacted something that HELPED every day Americans, rather than obstruct or harm? Imagine - a race by both parties to help Americans!

I know - it's a fantasy. Web Link

That is all. Thanks for reading.

Enjoy your day!
