For the medical anti-corruption crackdown, I don't have a source I can share other than hectic Zalo group chats of our friends asking us for last minute cash infusions as well as my SO's network back in VN, as well as her cousin's tuition hike at UMP after they changed the entire curriculum in the last 2 years (Edit: was lazy, I found it. 2024 [https://tuoitre.vn/truong-dai-hoc-y-duoc-tp-hcm-tang-hoc-phi...] versus 2022 [https://amp.laodong.vn/tuyen-sinh/hoc-phi-cac-truong-y-duoc-...] - they 6Xed tuition in just 2 years from $500/sem to $3k/sem)
