Tell me about it.

You should hear how a visit to the doctor goes.
I do know about that, but I've always found the lack of holidays and time off to be just as bizarre from a European POV.

Like right now, I'm 3 weeks off from work, and that is not even covered in my annual vacation days. Just a combination of public holidays (5 days), and 10 days of annual earned free time off. So on top of that I will also have 1 week of winter vacation, and 4 weeks during the summer.

And I'm just a regular blue collar factory worker with a pretty shitty salary.

I get two weeks vacation that I have to use in the summer, and one week of personal time. That's it. If you get sick and you can't work, use your personal time.

I got the flu in January and there went my time off for the year.

One would think that after COVID we would've learned as a society, that encouraging people to come into work while sick is not that good of an idea.
