Yes, but there are two different ones - one for medical appointments and one for medicine.

Sweden.
A few alternatives:
- I could book an appointment at the local health center. I would probably get a time at the earliest next week, and it would cost me $30. Health center doctors are generally quite overworked, and can sometimes be a bit dismissive of your issues in my experience, but they will help you. If you need specialist care, they will give you a referral, which could take several months depending on the priority of the case and the type of specialist.
- I could use an app to get access to a video call with a doctor, after having described my symptoms in the app. I would get a video call the same day and it would cost me $30. Given the remote nature of this kind of contact, they can be a bit limited in what they can do for you, but will try to help you regardless. If your case requires in-person examination, they will ask you to go to a health center instead. If you need specialist care, they will give you a referral and you'll have to wait the same amount of time as for a referral in the health center scenario.
- I am lucky enough to have a private health insurance plan through my employer. If I have any problems, I'll submit them to this private health insurer, and they put a human on the case and connects me with a specialist right away if the problem warrants one. Typically this happens the same or the next day. This costs me nothing, apart from what I pay in benefit taxes to be on the private health insurance plan.
All in all, things work fairly well in Sweden, but having gotten private health insurance has definitely jaded me a bit on account of how much better the experience is when you have that. If only the public system wasn't systematically underfunded and run by the dumbest politicians on offer in the country, then maybe everyone could have great patient experience.
The joy of seeing the first tomato is almost overwhelming
Watts are very individual, I wouldn't compare to anyone but yourself over time, if you're looking to improve your power.
Dude went from Gigachad to Gigachud at light speed
Knappt några i Sverige. Häpnadsväckande låg befolkningstäthet har vi.
I don't think MnDOT are complying.
I don't think anyone actually believes that shit.
I've had my Fjällräven backpack for 8 years with more or less daily use for a large part of that lifespan. It could do with some minor repair, but it's largely still going strong without any maintenance
Fwiw, I believe they manufacture their stuff in China these days.
Probably a bathroom if I had to guess.
Complete bathroom modules seemed to be pretty common in a lot of hotel rooms when I visited Japan, and this is basically a hotel room. They all had the raised doors to account for the waterproof floors not being level with the rest of the room.
They look quite sturdy too.
