Health can be defined in many different ways, for example, the Bio-Medical model of health believes health to be the absence of pain, biological abnormalities and diseases. Whereas most Socio-medical models of health such as the World Health Organisation consider health to involve a range of different factors such as environment, social life and mental wellbeing alongside the more recognised factors of health e.g. pain and sickness. From a personal perspective, health should cover all aspects, whether it is social, environmental, psychological and physical. All of these aspects are important aspects to a person’s wellbeing.

This is because people are positively thinking together to try to combat the problem of global epidemics. Without these people talking about this problem and thinking of new solutions we would continue to deal with the global epidemics the same way we previously have. Instead of continuing our reactive approach
