In 1948, the First World Health Assembly proposed that a day be established to commemorate the founding of the World Health Organization (WHO). Since then, World Health Day has been celebrated every April 7th.<\/p>\n
The WHO’s objective is to improve the health of people all over the world. Fighting diseases, ensuring food safety, medicines and vaccines. It has achieved milestones such as the eradication of smallpox (a disease that claimed some 300 million lives in the 20th century alone), in addition to taking the initiative in the face of major health emergencies such as Ebola. At least half of the world’s population still do not have access to quality healthcare. With the covid-19 pandemic, the great inequalities between countries were highlighted.<\/p>\n
With the commemoration of World Health Day, we also want to highlight the fundamental role of professionals in the health sector. Every time we go to a medical appointment whether in a health centre or a hospital, we receive the attention of health personnel, nurses and doctors who have chosen to dedicate themselves to this profession which is never easy and sometimes very complicated, such as during the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n
Most of today’s diseases are related to our lifestyle: cardiovascular, respiratory and psychological problems such as depression, which can reflect habits that are not beneficial to our health. It doesn’t hurt therefore to spend a few minutes reflecting before making the decision to take care of ourselves with gestures such as following a balanced diet, drinking less alcohol, eliminating tobacco, getting vaccinated and taking part in physical activities, maybe as part of a group.<\/p>\n
World Health Day shouldn’t just be something to commemorate every April 7th. It is about raising awareness and adopting a healthy lifestyle to reduce healthcare costs worldwide and above all, increasing life expectancy and improving your quality of life.<\/p>\n
