After a Dec. 5 screening of Michael Moore's "Sicko" indicated significant interest in the problems facing U.S. health care, the Uni High Activism Club decided to organize a larger forum in which to address that topic. The result? A communitywide panel discussion on health care reform to be held 7:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Channing-Murray Foundation, 1209 W. Oregon St., Urbana. The panelists will focus on the reform movement in Champaign County, where an estimated 40 percent of residents have no access to health care.

Almost 50 million Americans lack health insurance while countries such as Canada and the United Kingdom provide universal coverage for their citizens. But even the millions of Americans who do have insurance often find out their coverage is inadequate when they put in a claim. Michael Moore looks at the U.S. health care system in his latest documentary, "Sicko," which the Uni High Activism Club will show 7 p.m. Wednesday in Room 109.
