I start this blog today with the dream that one day good common (or “community”) health will be a reality across the world. I believe health is a common wealth – meaning, if my community, my village, my town or country has a good health environment, I benefit from it as much as my neighbours and we benefit from as a collective, as a community, as a country. And, if all (or at least most) countries have a good functional and effective health system, then all of us – all the nations and their peoples – benefit from its positive impact: happier and healthier people, higher productivity, better lifestyle, prosperity and security.
Well, well, I know, it’s a dream. But dreams are what we live for! So, here’s dreaming to my GOOD common health!
