Problem statement:

The problem on which i want to work is spread of communicable disease due to lack of health care awareness in our town.

Pakistan as a developing country is struggling in many domains due to which the health system has suffered a lot. As a result of that, Pakistan is ranked 122nd out of 190 countries in a World Health Organization performance report. Pakistan ranks 154th among 195 countries in terms of quality and accessibility of healthcare, according to a Lancet study.

What are communicable diseases?

Some examples of reportable communicable disease include HIV, hepatitis A, B and C, measles, salmonella, measles, and blood-borne illnesses. Most common forms of spread include fecal-oral, food, insect bites, contact with contaminated fomites, droplets, or skin contact

communicable diseases have always been the prime cause of mortalities in Pakistan.The reasons for the rapid spread of disease includes most of the people lack basic disease awareness other reasons are

unsafe drinking water

inadequate sanitation

poor socioeconomic condition

low health awareness

inadequate vaccination

why has the problem occured in our town?

All the reasons that i have described exists in our town due to which most of people in our town are suffering from one or more disease they have not proper awareness of disease and they start applying traditional methods of disease recovery and in return get more diseases .there is no hospitals medical care facilities due to which mortality rate has been increasing in rural area. First, distances are typically greater in rural areas than in urban areas, involving increased costs, communication difficulties, and transportation times for patients, medicines, and doctors alike.

Second, rural areas have by definition low population densities, often making rural medical infrastructure less economical in terms of number of individuals that can be served. Third, attracting and retaining well-qualified medical personnel is more challenging in rural environments.

Often, the best medical talent prefers to stay in urban areas where greater social and financial opportunities are available, leading to significant staffing shortages.

Solutions:

I with my fellows will raise a compaign at social media on which i will aware the government of Pakistan by the problems of our rural area like lack of transportation hospitals etc

I with my fellows will work for the people by guiding them with common hygienic measures safety measures that how they can prevent disease spread by applying safety measures

I will convince the urban area doctors and will collect funds with my fellows so that they can easily do a medical camping every month

I will guide them about the advantages of proper vacccination and tell them about different organizations who are working for the human welfare so that they can get improve their socioeconomic conditions
