Yes, it is a necessity. Unfortunately, it is not one that everyone can afford. While it is a necessity, we still have to choose whether or not we are going to get and pay for health insurance. I agree, all the things you listed contribute to our need for healthcare. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.Devalsodha wrote: ↑11 Jun 2021, 01:05 Yes I absolutely agree with the author. The air we breathe today, the food we eat and the lifestyle we live is definitely to cause health issues. May be the stress part too is causing it. So, Healthcare is obviously a necessity.

Yes, it is a grim reality to think that we have a choice in the matter. We must have it in order to be able to afford medical care, but there are many who simply cannot afford it. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

Yes, unfortunately, healthcare is a necessity. I agree that there are unforeseen things that require healthcare, especially as we age. We could also get in an accident, regardless of our age. While it is a necessity it is one that not everyone can afford. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.jeanmtdb wrote: ↑11 Jun 2021, 07:49 I agree with the author. Healthcare is a necessity. Unforeseen events or accidents would require healthcare and as we age, healthcare becomes even more important. I believe health insurance is also a necessity. People cannot depend on the government for the level of healthcare they may want or need. While responsibility for our health begins with us, medical healthcare will still be needed.

While I believe it is a necessity, it is also a choice. We choose rather or not we get insurance and will pay for it. For some, it is not a choice as they simply cannot afford it. For those who can afford it, we should get it, because as you said, it is a necessity. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.Nithilah Ayyappan wrote: ↑11 Jun 2021, 08:05 Healthcare is definitely a necessity, as the quote is accurate in the fact that everyone at one point in their lives will need medical care. Accidents can happen at any time, and medical bills run-up to a lot of money, which for some people is a large burden. Healthcare should therefore be a necessity, as a choice in staying safe or not isn't very= probable.

Yes, it is a fact and it should be a necessity, but not everyone can afford it. I agree that it is a good idea, but not everyone will have it. Some will simply choose not to, and others cannot. I guess too it depends on where you need and what is provided. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.Hhannahh wrote: ↑11 Jun 2021, 09:56 I think this is a question of fact, and in this case, the face speaks for itself. Healthcare is a necessity, regardless of the person. From the time of birth and throughout a person's lifetime, even the healthiest person would need some form of healthcare. Not that healthcare is not limited to orthodox medicine and procedures.

Yes, I completely agree. Even with social media on the rise, the rate of suicide and depression has increased. And, it is all starting at an earlier age. I agree that healthcare is necessary and essential, but not affordable for everyone. Thank you for sharing your experiences and thoughts.Laksha Maria Charbel wrote: ↑11 Jun 2021, 11:34 I agree with the author on this one. Healthcare has become a necessity in today's times. Speaking from personal experience, I never imagined that I would need psychotherapy at the age of 27. The kind of stress we have to deal with is on the rise with little attention being paid to coaching coping strategies in order to deal with them. I came across a survey from Harvard University that, the search for perfectionism has lead to a 40 percent increase in depression among college students in comparison to 10 years ago.

Yes, I agree it is a necessity. Some people will not see it that way, and it is their choice. However, the reality is that we need it and it helps with our care and decreases our bills. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
