Description
When governments engage in discussions about public health they almost inevitably present this in terms of health care. Public health equals public health care. This completely misconstrues the problem. The greatest gains in health have not been achieved through the delivery of better health care but through the delivery of broader structural changes. If governments cared about the health of their populations more, they would care less and attend more to those public health factors that will bring about the greatest health benefits.
