27 million Americans still don't have health insurance

Among them, apparently, Mary Lou Retton, who won 5 Olympic gold medals:

Olympic star Mary Lou Retton ‘fighting for her life’ in ICU, daughter says

Quote:

Retton has been diagnosed with “a very rare form of pneumonia” and has been in the ICU at an undisclosed hospital for more than a week “not able to breathe on her own”, McKenna Kelley said in an Instagram story posted on Tuesday afternoon. “Out of respect for her and her privacy, I will not disclose all details,” wrote Kelley, a former gymnast at Louisiana State University. “However, I will disclose that she is not insured.” She added: “We ask that if you could help in any way, that 1) you PRAY! and 2) if you could help us with finances for the hospital bill.”

I wonder what happened to her. Very sad. Reduced to asking the public for help to pay for a hospital bill. I'm assuming that this is all true, of course, although perhaps I should be more cynical and skeptical given that this is someone asking for money on the internet.
