We have a major health crisis in this country. from anxiety to xenophobia and all in between. Successive governments continue to treat this as an anomaly. Over the last several years , we have recorded so many deaths related to violence and suicide, its troubling. We simple cannot continue doing the same thing over and over and expect different results. The old phrase "the health of a nation is the wealth of a nation", does not hold true. We all have a part to play in getting this country back on track, if not, we have to continue to break more records.
