UNIVERSAL HEALTH COVERAGE: “EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE” WORLD HEALTH DAY – 2018.

“Over 800 million people or almost 12 percent of the world’s population spend at least 10 percent of their household budgets on health expenses for themselves, a sick child or other family member”

World health day is celebrated across the world on April 8th. It helps in understanding the importance of health in our everyday lives. People should be more concerned about their health and should also make sure that people around them are hale and hearty. Good health is necessary to enjoy a happy and prosperous life. If a person is healthy then he/she can perform well in the job or task, can be mentally relaxed and healthy, and will stay away from many diseases like hypertension (Blood pressure), cancer etc.

The slogan for the day this year is “Health for All”
