Health Minister Jamie Maxtone-Graham today
(Thursday, December 22, 2011) predicted a major shift in health from “curative”
to “preventive”.
Preventive medicine or preventive care refers to measures
taken to prevent diseases, or injuries, rather than curing them or treating
their symptoms.
“We are going to have a paradigm shift,”
Maxtone-Graham said at a press conference with National Planning Minister Sam
Basil.
“We must look at this preventive health policy now.
“It’s a long term investment.
“Preventive health is very important.
“We don’t have to spend more money on health if less
people get sick.
“I’ll be spending more time with National Planning
working on this, as we want a smart nation with health-conscious people who
live a healthy lifestyle.
“A healthy nation is a wealthy nation.”
Maxtone-Graham also reaffirmed Basil’s stance that
the O’Neill-Namah faction was the legitimate government of Papua New Guinea.
Healthy nation can become wealthy when people get education..
