Healthcare is a very important field that needs to be carefully catered and handled. It is equally sensitive at the same time as it deals with the lives of human beings, especially such humans who are fighting with multiple ailments and diseases. Although healthcare does not necessarily include providence of medical and healthcare services only in the case of the presence of any medical issue or emergency, most of the times, the professionals in the medical sector become active when there is some medical emergency or there is some medical issue present.

The functions of WHO is not only limited to some specific geographical area but all over the world.

It does so by promoting the steps and spreading awareness about the prevention of these steps. These steps include some basic actions like getting vaccinated and washing hands before every meal (Gostin, 2014).
