Let us honor our rural healthcare workers on this World Health Day as they continue to fight the good fight against COVID-19 in rural communities.

The work of rural health workers often goes unnoticed. They work away from the urban spotlight with very little acknowledgement of the important role they perform in providing health services to rural communities.

On this World Health Day, let us remember to strive for equitable access to healthcare for all our people!
Let us stand as a united South Africa and fight for each and everyone to have access to the healthcare that they deserve.
#RuralHealthMatters #rural #WorldHealthDay2021

World Health Organization (WHO)@WHO

On #WorldHealthDay, let's build a fairer, healthier 🌎🌍🌏

#COVID19 highlighted how some 👱🙎🏽‍♀️ live healthier lives & have better access to health services than others, due to their living conditions.

It's time for #HealthEquity to reach #HealthForAll!
