People should look after their health because this is a duty to the society not just a personal benefits. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
It has been pointed out that every single person ought to take care of their well-being conditions since it is not only beneficial to individuals rather to our communities. Personally, I thoroughly agree with
this
idea as more residents with healthy well-being has a huge number of benefits to society in terms of economy and basic infrastructure development.
First
of all, having a massive majority of ordinary individuals in communities brings extreme economic benefits to a community. The reason is that those who have a well-being situation are less likely to take a sick leave, so they are able to work every single day, which can improve organizations’ profitability and productivity, thus
contributing to the local economic growth. For instance
, the Beijing government has been launching several campaigns and educational programs to remind the general public about the importance of a healthy lifestyle. The officers of the healthcare and financial departments state that a significant percentage of employees are able to work without asking for a sick day off after they pay more attention to their health, which increases national productivity by 10%.
Furthermore
, having fewer citizens with health problems has a positive impact on basic facilities constructions. This
is because everyone is entitled to a healthcare allowance which is provided by governments, and if there are a tiny proportion of patients with life-threatening conditions in hospitals, the authorities only need to spend an insignificant amount of money treating them, which makes political leaders invest more funds into other facilities development. For example
, the Indian government mentioned that after knowing to look after their own well-being, hospitals do not need to treat as many patients as previous, thus
saving a great deal of money for the government. The saving funding can be used in other basic infrastructure construction, leading to the development of society at a rapid rate.
In conclusion, although
different people may vary in their opinion about whether individuals paying more attention to their health can bring benefits to a community or not, I am of the opinion that this
thriving trend has positive effects on economic and facilities' growth for society.Submitted by strawberry.guan on
