Question 1: What do you think about the health education of COVID-19?
Answer: Improving the health of people is an essential and perhaps one of the most important functions of any government. health education plays one of the most vital roles in doing so. COVID-19 is the first pandemic to strike the world since the early 1900s and has magnified the existing inequalities and inequities around the world. The rapid spread of the disease has called for many health care measures and education is one of them. The COVID-19 pandemic demands new investments in schools of public health so that they develop and implement the delivery of some new courses and methods for achieving relevant competencies. As it currently stands, public health education is crafting good scientists, practitioners and decision-makers; and many of us are outcomes of the current system. But the current systems may need rapid development to deliver the type of public health professionals who can respond to pandemics or a post-pandemic world. We believe that public health is the widest bridge between science and society; and to secure this position, thoughtful quality development of public health education may be required.
Question 2: Do you think that Health education is a powerful weapon to tackle the spread of infectious disease?
Answer: Yes, health education is indeed a powerful weapon to tackle the spread of infectious diseases. Health care education programs help empower individuals and communities to live healthier lives by improving their physical, mental, emotional and social health by increasing their knowledge and influencing their attitudes about caring for their well-being.
