Ivan:

“During a regular day at work, I suddenly got a bad flu with a high fever, body
aches, and a cough that wouldn't go away. Worried about my health, I went to a
nearby clinic for help. The doctor there was nice and paid attention to me, even
though we had trouble understanding each other. They checked me thoroughly and said
I had a bad respiratory infection. They gave me medicine to take and said I needed
rest. I felt better knowing I was in good hands. Thanks to the doctor's quick help,
I could recover and finish the rest of my workday.”

Maria:

“During my trip abroad, I got a really bad sore throat that made it hard to
swallow. I didn't have travel health insurance and was worried about the cost, so I
hesitated to see a doctor. But as the pain got worse, I knew I had to go. I found a
local clinic and was unsure how much it would cost. The doctor examined me and said
I had a throat infection, giving me medicine and telling me to rest. The care was
good, but I felt stressed about the money, especially in a foreign place. I learned
that having health insurance for trips is important, even short ones. It taught me
that unexpected health problems can happen anytime, and being prepared is vital for
both my health and wallet.”
