Governments around the world spend too much money on treating illnesses and diseases and not enough on health education and prevention. Do you agree or disagree with this statement?

There are two approaches to handle illnesses around the world. One is preventing it even before people get sick, the other is to treat after people fall ill. Governments spend more money on the latter. I agree that the world governments should spend more on prevention than on cure. When there is a proliferation of a virus, Governments has no choice other than to spend a huge amount of money on the recovery. If no action is taken, it might lead to a major disaster in the society. Governments may argue that its inevitable and cannot be avoided. Apart from that, it's essential for Governments to protect their citizens from any
