The spread of disease through limited access to healthcare, vaccinations and doctors, coupled with poor hygiene facilities, lack of education, pollution and inequalities that also lead to poverty and violence all lend to whether good health and wellbeing can be maintained. The Corona Virus (COVID-19) is a modern example of how disease can not only spread, but is not limited to developing countries… impacting health, economy and freedom; inducing lockdown across the world and forcing productivity to grind to a halt. Whilst the short-term impact on the wider environment was positive in many ways (such as a reduction in emissions and new laws to prevent illegal wildlife trade) thousands of people lost their lives to the virus. Increased health provision funding is needed globally, as well as improved education and access to the care humans need throughout their life.
