Whereas some people wake up in the morning pondering what they might want to eat for breakfast, millions of global citizens around the world are more concerned with if they feel well enough to wake up and take care of what needs to get done. For everything incredible, beautiful, and inspiring that takes place on our planet, there still exists a multitude of health challenges facing many of us, and if we do not act, these individuals will remain in grave danger.
According to the World Health Organization, “nine out of every ten people breathe polluted air every day.” These microscopic pollutants present the greatest environmental risk to health. WHO experts say that pollutants in our air supply can penetrate respiratory and circulatory systems, resulting in serious damage to the lungs, heart and brain. These adverse effects are responsible for taking the lives of 7 million people prematurely every year, with 90% of these deaths occurring in low- and middle-income countries.
Though some people may not believe this, as humans co-existing with one another, it is our responsibility to one another to take care of each other. Our air is so polluted because we have caused it to occur. The primary cause of air pollution is the burning of fossil fuels, a practice we undergo each day to power our planes, trains, and automobiles.
According to WHO statistics, over 1.6 billion people (22% of the global population) live in places where “protracted crises and weak health services leave them without access to basic care.” In these settings, individuals have little to no access to primary care, especially for children and women in need of maternal healthcare.
Multi-Trillion Dollar Industry Providing Massive Opportunity in 2019 & Beyond
No matter where one lives in the world, the first point of contact for every person who feels ill is a visit to their primary health care center. In the U.S., millions of Americans visit their primary care physicians each year to undergo regulatory screenings and checkups, but in more impoverished countries, the number of people in need of care typically outweighs the bandwidth physicians in the area.
Systemic issues in our global healthcare framework can be seen from baseline analysis of a country’s infrastructure. In the case of Canada, a country which boasts a universal healthcare system, even Canadians are finding it difficult to get treated.
According to recent reports, 39% of Canadians who visited an emergency room indicated that they could have avoided the visit if they had better access to primary care. There is a mass shortage of primary care doctors and nurses in Canada, especially in remote and rural communities, which has resulted in higher burn-out rates for clinicians. Roughly 15% of Canadians aged twelve and older don’t have a primary care physician.
Amid the onslaught of issues plaguing both the global and Canadian healthcare markets, companies in the healthcare industry are rising to the challenge to do their part in remediating the system to better meet the demands of consumers in need of quality care.
