it's only political if you make it so, and your post seems to be making it so.
i didn't notice any question as to availability or affordability of insurance, just another "white priblidge" rant.
you wanna tour? wanna stay healthy? buy some goldang insurance.
three months of travel insurance with covid cover will cost about a hundred bucks.
a day or two at a minimal wage job will pay for it.
instead of crowdsourcing my feelings, i contacted an insurance agent:
"Safe Travels Outbound Cost Saver will cost $101 and Safe Travels Outbound will cost $118
for three months coverage with same $500,000 maximum and $250 deductible."
