In comtemporary society, people need to pay more attention on their own health for theit own benefits, instead of their duties for community. In this essay, I will include the points of both sides and present my own opinion.
People had received the specific duties in front of the society that they belong to, such as representing others and obeying the laws. However, in some situations, they needed to ignore their own interests to serve for thier environment. Firefighters, doctors and military workers are big examples of this. They had rights to protects and stand for their own life while they have duties to work for well-being of the society due to the fact that tehy have swore. In some difficult cases such as the pandemic, they had worked to make the situation better instead of taking care for themselves.
On the other hand, there are some who believe in that they should focus on their their helath although serving for their society is their duty. Everyone has rights to prefer their own life rather than their roles in public. For example, doctors job is to protect people from some illness, and in hard times like COVID-19 era, doctors should protect themselves first. Simply because, they are also members of the human race same as their patients.
From my own perspective, people need to take care for their health initially, then they serve for their duties for their society. To protect public health, first doctors should be healthy. So every community members should priorotize their own lives rathers than others’. If everyone consider about their health, it will lead us to healthier society.
