Every year the World Health Organization (WHO) commemorates the World Health Day on 7 April. This day is held around the world with the aim of raising awareness about preventive measures that improve the quality of life.
This year, the WHO’s theme is “Universal health coverage: everyone, everywhere”.
As they claim on their website, “universal health coverage is about ensuring all people can get quality health services, where and when they need them, without suffering financial hardship. No one should have to choose between good health and other life necessities.”
