Call For Action: India’s Universal Health Care By 2020 — Chronic Diseases
Vikram Patel
LONDON—A call for action has been made in the medical journal: The Lancet that India should achieve health care for all by the year 2020. This was discussed at a symposium in the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine held to launch the Lancet’s India special edition at which the five section editors presented their views on the different means by which India can provide health for all. Vikram Patel Professor of International Mental Health at the London School talked with Peter Goodwin about the need to address issues of chronic diseases and injuries in these comprehensive healthcare plans.
After noticing your immense interest in health care I come to the conclusion that we are on the same page. Thereby I am very grateful to people like you. I came across a related NGO project and thought I’d like to share this link (http://www.jaagore.com/project/care-support-hiv-aids-initiatives). It talks about a project that extends care support and service (regarding health) to families.
