I would argue that Spain's current system of *having* to see a public health system doctor to get even one day off sick is counterproductive. Here I am, #covid test from last night clearly positive, in the doctor's waiting room with octogenarians and small children. I've been here an hour because the doctor's running late. I called the surgery ahead of time and, yes, I *need* to see the doctor in-person. We have masks, of course.
