Health Issues of Rural Areas

                                                   Health Issues of Rural Areas
 “It is said that health is very precious gift by God to human being but it is also a soreness adversary if you don’t care properly.” Unfortunately rural areas are still backward in health related domains.
            Rural areas are those areas where people spend hard lives; belong to lower classes and usually their health issues are at peak. Like Gilgit Baltistan, interior Sindh, Baluchistan and the outer areas of Punjab as well. People from these areas are suffered by the diseases like; HIV, SRH, BRAIN TUMOR, SCHIZOPHRENIA, SEXUAL REPRODUCTIVITY and other diseases related to heart and brain. These diseases are not entertained at government hospitals and dispensaries. On the other hand there are some private clinics and local health caretakers (HAKEEMS), who treat patients on high costs but the people cannot afford such expensive treatments because of their poorness and unemployment. Sometimes people prey to death due not to proper treatments. As we talked about the meagerness of people living in these areas, however, it is much pitiable issue and still government is unaware of their dangerous problems which may cause death.
            The appointed accountable persons are responsible to tackle these issues but it is likely unawareness of jurisdictions for ignoring such rural areas where health problems do speak. Rural areas are openly being ignored by government of Pakistan. Are these people not Pakistani? If so then what is their identity? If no then why should this atrocity be with these areas? Why these issues are not being discussed by government? People are frustrated with the war against their health. There are so many areas where people cannot get medicine for even headache. While talking about the health issues of rural areas, I compulsively have to say that government has lost its conscious and does deserve governance in the state. However, health problems must be the first priority to solve, but at the current scenario health is not considered such a problem.
            Government must show the system of equality for both urban and rural areas. It is an essential factor to discuss over because without health everything costs nothing. Health is the main issue which made rural lives very difficult. These areas do not have the proper facilities of health. Sometimes poor people prey to death just because of not proper treatment and lake of other health facilities. Government must observe these challenges of rural areas and should provide pure remedy in the form of hospitals, dispensaries, doctors, health experts and medicines as well because rural areas also have right to get rid of their ailments.

            Going through above mentioned health issues I personally observe the point that rural areas are being fully disregarded by health ministry of Pakistan. Government should provide every treatment to these areas with affordable fee and should implement scientific technology in the hospitals.
