Global health is currently facing an existential crisis. Traditional values that once underpinned our healthcare systems are eroding, and yet, no new or superior values have emerged to replace them. Furthermore, the essential spirit of internationalismâcritical for global cooperationâis under severe threat. Factors such as political compromises, financial instability, terrorism, and ecological challenges are undermining this spirit. These threats highlight a crucial point: healthcare delivery systems cannot function effectively in isolation. This crisis transcends the realm of health, mirroring deeper, systemic issues within our civilisation that significantly impact the medical profession.

Our âhealth crisisâ is not a problem of individuals getting sick (as if our environment were perfectly healthy and conducive to making humans thrive). It is one of many expressions of a sick society.

Important article, which there is much to discuss.
There is indeed a health crisis; all the signs point to an end of the model that we have been using for the last 200 years or so, which tends to look at the body and mind as a machine. In addition, modern medicine is not so much curative as it is about control and management, as in managing hypertension, diabetes, pain, etc.
While A.I. might seem like a wonderful diagnostic tool, given that it is computer-based tech suggests that it will rely on the same old model with digital bells and whistles.
New wine in old wineskins. I doubt AI or computer tech will lead to better healthcare for individuals since it just magnifies the original problem.
What is needed is a more holistic approach of healing our minds and bodies, which are connected. This leads to a curative mindset. Maybe one day Big Pharma will be out of business.
Your comments and feedback has really touched my heart. Thank you. đđŸ â€ïžI was really unsure of this post. Totally divided. My intuition has been pushing, driving me if you like, to write this post. My mind totally opposed.
I believe this post is not complete, and there is so much more to add. This is very much a first step towards new wisdom. I really appreciate your thoughtful feedback. Happy Saturday!
