What: Health Care Event:
Featuring the film "Sick Around the World"

When: Wednesday, September 9 at 7pm
Where: American Women's Club of Zurich Clubhouse

The ongoing Health Care debate in the United States has dominated the US headlines and led to the US health care system being compared to many other countries. To provide insights, and hopefully answer some questions, we will show the PBS Documentary "Sick Around the World" (http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontl...roundtheworld/). This documentary explore how five other capitalist democracies -- the United Kingdom, Japan, Germany, Taiwan and Switzerland -- deliver health care, and what the United States might learn from their successes and their failures. We will view this film and then have a guided discussion. All are welcome!

There will be a cash bar available and light snacks will be served.
