Eggs look like this:
They don't need to be washed with hot water and soap, they're perfectly good as they are.
Sorry about the hospital thing. By "for-profit", I meant you had to pay to go there. That's completely alien to everyone in the first world. We have private hospitals as well, and yep: lots of them are (or claim to be) non-profit also.
from what i saw when i looked into the egg washing thing. It's two different solutions to the same problem. The same problem ultimately being unsafe eggs. From what i can recall the europeans generally treat chickens against them, whereas the US generally treats eggs against them (by washing them)
presumably the US does it because either, we started doing it, and it worked, or it's just more flexible. I know japan ended adopting it after they got a particularly bad batch of infected eggs causing a pretty bad health spook. Other than that i don't think it's happened anywhere else.
yeah fair enough, it just bothers me when people say for profit when it's literally not lol. It's getting money in either scenario, it's just taxes from one, and people who pay for insurance and operations directly in the other so.
Actually you're not wrong about for profit hospitals here. Many of them are getting acquired by private equity firms(look into PE acquisitions across this country it will make you sick) and those are for profit hospitals.
