Richard Johnson

I am talking to Richard Johnson, an official of WHO, the World Health Organization. Today he will talk with us about the change of people's understanding of health. Hello, Richard. Hello. Now Richard, the concept of health has been changing all the time. And different people and groups hold different opinions towards it. Would you mind telling us the original concept of health? Of course not. Health has long been viewed in the physical sense only. That is, good health has been connected to the smooth mechanical operation of body, while ill health has been attributed to a breakdown in this machine. In this sense, health has been defined as the absence of disease or illness and is seen in medical terms. Therefore, creating health for people means providing medical care to treat or prevent disease and illness. Then what was the emphasis of the work of the WHO during that period? Well, the emphasis was of course on providing clean water, improved sanitation and housing.
与我对话的是世界卫生组织官员，Richard Johnson。今天他将跟我们谈谈人们的健康观念的改变过程。你好，Richard。 你好！ 健康的定义一直在转变。不同的人们有着不同的看法。你介意跟我们说说健康最初的概念吗？ 当然不介意。长久以来，健康一直只限制在物理意义上。身体健康与身体机能良好作用联系在一起，不健康就被归因为身体这个机器出现了故障。 从这层意义上来说，健康被定义为没有疾病，当做医疗术语。因此，保持健康意味着提供医疗护理，来治疗或预防疾病。 那么，在那段时期，世界卫生组织的工作重点是什么? 嗯，重点当然是提供清洁水源，改善环境卫生和住房条件。
