Bernie Sanders’s claim that ‘36,000 people will die yearly’ if Obamacare is repealed - News Summed Up

Bernie Sanders’s claim that ‘36,000 people will die yearly’ if Obamacare is repealed


Then this tweet caught our eye:As Republicans try to repeal the Affordable Care Act, they should be reminded every day that 36,000 people will die yearly as a result. The Obama administration says that about 20 million people have gained insurance because of the ACA. Roughly speaking, if all 20 million people who gained insurance under the Affordable Care Act lost it, that would mean 20,000 deaths. Take away any one of them, and Sanders’s claim that repeal of the law will cause 36,000 people to die a year falls apart. 20% 20% 20% 20% 20% Pardon the interruption!
