▶ Your Answer :
Some people think that the government should pay more attention to environmental issues than health care issues. However, in my opinion, the government have to focus on national health care than environmental things. This is because, there are still many health-related matters which have not solved, and many people are still unaccessible to doctors and basic medicines. First of all, public health authorities still have not solved many common health problem. Nowadays, many people are troubled with well-known diseases. What makes the matter worse, some diseases are on the rise. According to a study by Korean public health authority, diabetes which is common for over forties affects over 10% of Korean adults. If the government do not cope with this situation properly, the proportion will be expected to be over 30% by 2050. This illustrates the importance of supporting that the government should concentrate on the public health. Moreover, since average health care systems have been improved and spreaded, there are many people in the world still lack of them. It leads to high rates of deaths which can be prevented with fundamental health care, such as seeing doctors and prescribing some basic medicines. WHO, World Health Organization, recently addressed a report that there is a list of 57 countries in health crisis. According to the report, there are one doctor per a thousand people, and there is severly medicine shortage in the listed countries. As this example shows, It is important to give more attention to health care issues to provide proper care to those who are inaccessible situation. Taking all of these things into account, we should consider the fact that funding for the national health care system is more important than the environmental issues, since there are many unsolved common health problems and many people who can not get basic health care. I can say with great confidence that my opinion will turn a right one. |
