It’s about bankrupcy due to a medical condition.

Yes, resulting from lack of treatment and delay in paying disability benefits.

Literally the subheading of the article

Complètement diminuées, des personnes atteintes de Covid long font face à des délais de plus deux ans pour savoir si elles auront droit ou non à une rente AI. Incapables de travailler, certaines finissent ruinées.

In english:

Completely disabled, people stricken by long COVID face delays of more than two years to know if they will have disability benefits. Incapable of working, some finish bankrupt.

Is this not an example of medical bankruptcy ie. bankruptcy due to a medical condition?

If you don’t see the difference between the state covering the cost of medical treatment and the state handouts for unemployed, I cannot help you. You are either deliberately obtuse or simply dim.

No, they got sick, now they have a long lasting condition and can’t work because of it. They did get treatment but can’t be cured (as of today long-covid is still a mystery). They didn’t lose all their money because of the medical bills, they’re losing their money because they can’t work anymore and the state is not giving them “benefits” (horrible word in this case). One is an issue with healthcare, one is an issue with social welfare, again, not the same thing.
