Auspiciously titled

Right after my "still alive" post I came down with some awful, 3-day long SuperFlu that knocked me right on my ass and made me miss a whole day of work. No fun at all. On the day I took off, though, I discovered the wonders of the nationalized healthcare system here. Being uninsured, I was a little worried that the costs would be preventative. Not so. For half an hour of my time and 670 NT (~20 bucks US) I received registration info, a visit to a hospital doctor, my diagnosis, my prescription, and all my drugs. My drug regimen finishes tomorrow, and I already feel a million times better. Awesome.
