The system, which replaces the county hospital system of many other states, is an odd mixture of aging infrastructure and underinvestment, combined with well thought out public health initiatives. This latest campaign, vaccinating girls against HPV infections will ensure that, at least on this matter, being poor in a poor state doesn't mean you get substandard healthcare. More importantly, it will save lives.
