In many ways, it\u2019s a better\nworld when it comes to healthcare, but there are still millions of people\naround the globe that are not able to access adequate healthcare. World Health\nDay 2019 is all about change, to push forward the message that healthcare is a\nbasic human right. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>At least half of\nthe people in the world do not receive the health services they need.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A world of fair, accessible healthcare for all is the goal\nof the World Health Organisation, and World Health Day is all about increasing\nawareness of this vital campaign.&nbsp; To\nensure that no one slips through the gaps in the healthcare system, to push\ngovernments to offer affordable healthcare so no one has to choose between\ntheir medication or feeding their family. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About 100 million\npeople are pushed into extreme poverty each year because of out-of-pocket\nspending on health.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Healthcare should not lead to financial hardship, and no one\nshould suffer from being unable to access healthcare, regardless of where they\nlive. If you\u2019d like to get involved, there are several ways you can do this.\nYou can sign the World Health Organisation petition, your signature will add\nweight to the efforts of the World Health Organisation that will be presented\nat the United Nations General Assembly in September where world leaders will gather\nto agree on a political declaration to secure worldwide commitment to making\nuniversal healthcare a reality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Health is a human\nright; everyone should have the information and services they need to take care\nof their own health and the health of their families.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another way to get involved is to join in with the World\nHealth Day Solidarity Chain. Gather together as many people as possible;\nfriends, family, your work colleagues. Join hands as a gesture of commitment to\nuniversal health coverage. Then share photos of your chain on social media with\nthe #HealthForAll hashtag. There will be many people making their own\nSolidarity Chains all over the world, so look out for them and give them a like\nand a share. This is such an important issue that affects everyone, now and in\nthe future. With our efforts, the future of healthcare could be brighter for\nall.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With advances in science and medicine, many of us will live longer than our ancestors and many diseases and conditions are now curable or manageable that would once have been life threatening.
