I can't quite discern the subtext here but I will say that for many people international travel is not an appropriate solution for access to health care. People who are elderly, very sick, or without a passport, travel could be infeasible.

And beyond the logistical challenges, I think it should be fair to say axiomatically that international travel is not an adequate solution to healthcare access.



"right to try" seems to be enshrined in some US laws. Were you not aware of that?

as for "travel could be infeasible" : I'd suggest you call up some clinic in Mexico and pretend to be terminal and unable to travel. See if they come up with some solution for you.
