pharmacy-paradise


Tijuana is a paradise for sick people. There are pharmacies on every street corner.
Not only the sizes of a MacDonald.
They even look like them.
From the inside they look like a Damien Hirst-discount store.

The reason of their existence is that most Americans don't have insurance and when you don't have insurance you pay full price for drugs.
Making it worth the trip to Mexico to buy medicine.
They load up their pick-up truck with cheap painkillers, viagra, etc.


But now, with the mexican flue & the cartel wars......
The gringos don't come no more.
Not even the sick gringos.
Sad for the sick gringo's sad for the mexicans.





There are also many dentists and plastic surgery-clinics.
