Abstract

Public health is politics, as stated in the oxford textbook of public health. Political interventions can improve social determinants, which depend on political action or, more frequently, inaction. The proportion of Gross National Product (GNP) spent on health sector is considered as a quantitative indicator of political commitment of that country. Many major issues that dominate political life, such as housing, socioeconomic status, and employment, play a vital role in determining our health and well-being. Changing the current health systems trends requires political activism and political awareness.All human populations must be involved in health politics through a democratic process. The political process used to improve public health must be supported by sound scientific evidence. Moving forward, political interference in medical decisions may become more common, but it may also be necessary to improve patient care. A nation's policies toward health care access tend to be broadly inclusive, even when other forms of inequality are tolerated because health is a responsibility of the federal state. Nations worldwide should converge on a governance model for health products and health services that gives significant power to professionally and governmentally sanctioned scientists and healthcare workers who can serve natural justice and distribute equitable health system resources.
