Some people think it is more important for government to spend public money on promoting a healthy lifestyle in order to prevent illness than to spend it on the treatment of people who are already ill To what extent do you agree or disagree

It is true that some people argue for more
public expenditure spent on disease
prevention by encouraging a healthy lifestyle
than on medical treatments. I disagree with
this view because government should stress
more importance on curing illnesses.
On the one hand, the reasons why people hold
a belief for the promotion of a healthy lifestyle
to prevent illness are varied. One of the
convincing arguments is that the sedentary
routines of many people make them more
prone to the risk of diabetes or heart disease
as a result of their inactivity. In modern life,
people are so caught up in the pressures
of work or study that they neglect the
importance of keeping fit. Moreover,
dependence on the car exacerbates the
problem associated with the lack of exercise.
Daily commuters do not consider cycling to
their workplace as the means of getting
regular exercise. Thus, government provision
of affordable leisure and sports facilities,
coupled with promotion campaigns to keep
fit and healthy would certainly be a
worthwhile initiative to raise the general level
of public health.
On the other hand, in the process of
decision-making on health matters, I am
in favor of the opinion that expenditure
on curing diseases contracted by the
public should be given more priorities.
Firstly, not all illnesses are the result of
unhealthy lifestyle choices by individuals.
For example, respiratory disorders are
affected by air pollution in cities, while
poor sanitation and contaminated
drinking water contribute to outbreaks of
cholera and dysentery. Secondly, the failure
to subsidize medicines or to invest in
hospitals would certainly lead to many
deaths which could have been avoided
by timely treatment. Hospitals, for
instance, have many roles in providing
treatment, not only surgery but also in
conducting vital research into the
treatment of many life-threatening
conditions, such as cancer or asthma.
In conclusion, although it is undeniable that
encouraging the pursuit of healthy routines
results in certain benefits, I strongly believe
that increased investment in medical services makes further contributions to the
improvement of public health.
