Population is one thing. Ratios of population to good care is another. Yes US has more geography and population. But US also has more doctors, hospitals clinics and tech equipment.

You seem to think universal health care is impossible in US.

Edit: obviously room for improvement.

Where does the US rank in universal health care?
last overall
The U.S. ranks last overall on the health care outcomes domain (Exhibit 1). On nine of the 10 component measures, U.S. performance is lowest among the countries (Appendix 8), including having the highest infant mortality rate (5.7 deaths per 1,000 live births) and lowest life expectancy at age 60 (23.1 years).Aug 4, 2021
