> I'm an EMT in Belgium

It always happens eventually in discussions like this. "I'm from <country in Europe> and I don't get why y'all are so stupid, unlike us."

The US healthcare system is worthy of critique for many things, most of all cost, but the quality of care is just as good as every other western nation. Doctors are quite skilled, just like they are in Belgium I assume. And of course hospitals plan for mass casualty events. All of them, I bet, if they have an ER.
