When is World Health Day?
Friday April 7thWorld Health Day is the worldwide recognition of health as a human right.. We all play a role in our personal well-being and the well-being of those around us, from healthcare professionals to policymakers, families with young children or elderly.
One of the primary factors in these advancements is the ability to have consistent access to them as first-world resources continue to improve the overall quality of life for the masses.
As science continues to find ways to extend the life span and quality of our lives, it's only right for us to want all people to have access to these advancements no matter where they live. Thousands of people are killed each year by preventable diseases simply due to geographic limitations.
More people are active, productive, and disease-free lives are healthier as a result of affordable healthcare. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), healthcare expenditures push 100 million people into extreme poverty each year due to out-of-pocket spending.
This observance is the opportunity for the World Health Organization to announce the World Health Statistics Report. This report is an annual publication of health information spanning a variety of topics, from infant and child health to environmental hazards. In addition,, the study includes statistics on the evolution of universal health care.
