German healthcare systems must be considered more closely. The aim of this paper is to examine the healthcare systems of both Western and Eastern Germany before and after Reunification, focusing on the rapid convergence of healthcare conditions since 1990 following roughly two decades of continuous divergence.

Additionally, Dubner and Levitt mention a few studies in other countries…

that look like motor oil. Speed: Large lahars mostly achieve speeds of 20 m/s on the lower sides of volcanoes and more than 10 m/s for areas 50 km away from the source when restricted to narrowed canyons. (Cummans, 1981; Pierson, 1985; Pierson et al, 1990) Temperature: lahar reaches the temperature of 100 degree Celsius and then dries out like concrete. Effects: Buildings, bridges, roads, farm lands or anything that comes in the way of lahar gets buried under lahar which dries out into cement…
