Using the above and census mortality data, a study estimated about 35,000 to 44,789 excess deaths annually in U.S. adults ages 18-64 because of being uninsured.

while institutions accused of protecting abusers remain untouched… what does that say about our national values?

A moral nation protects the vulnerable.
A corrupt one protects the powerful.

Which one are we choosing to be?

Cases involving high-influence figures get narrowed. Networks go unexplored. The public sees accountability for one person, while questions about who else may have been involved quietly fade away.
