In many countries, the government’s budget of health is mainly used for treating illnesses and diseases and not spent much for other health related issues like educating people or preventing from diseases. This essay agrees with that government should spend more money on health education and prevention. Firstly, health education must be something that people pay attention on, and also some diseases should be cared early to prevent the bigger percentage of the public.
If health education can be something that people pay attention on, illnesses will be more severe and there will be no need for allocating the budget as much as the government does now. This can be achieved by creating mandotary courses starting from very early ages in schools. For example, if government can make people learn more about the harmful effects of an alchohol or a cigarette, less people might end up using those in their life later and also less people might have cancer. Therefore,the money spent on cancer treatment can be lessen.
There are some diseases that it also important to protect the ones who don’t have the disease. So protecting the people is as important in some cases. That’s why allocating more budget on preventation plays an important role. For instance, Corona virus was something we all experienced most recently. In those days, the government’s budget and actions was very important.In the future, we can again have similar situations,so planning to allocate more money is a logical action.
In conclusion, governments should spend more many on health education and prevention since it also important not the be sick in the firsthand and illnesses will be more severe when people have more knowledge about.
