Why prevention is better than cure? [ 3 MARKS ]

Open in App
Solution

Reasoning out: 1 Mark
Explanation: 2 Marks


The first is that once someone has a disease, their body functions are damaged and may never recover completely.

The second is that treatment will take time, which means that someone suffering from a disease is likely to be bedridden for some time even if we can give proper treatment

The third is that the person suffering from an infectious disease can serve as the source from where the infection may spread to other people. This leads to the multiplication of the above difficulties.

It is because of such reasons that prevention of diseases is better than their cure.
