Health Decline: The Impact of War on Israeli Women's Health
Health Decline: The Current Landscape
The ongoing war has significantly affected health among women in Israel. The Briah Foundation's recent survey highlights alarming trends:
- Two-thirds of respondents report a deterioration in their health.
- Approximately 59% of evacuees have skipped preventive screenings.
- Even 40% of non-evacuees report a rise in missed essential exams.
The Importance of Preventive Care
Preventive care is vital for maintaining health, especially during stressful times. Women should prioritize health screenings to mitigate the risks caused by skipping these crucial check-ups.
Community Response and Support
As health declines are noted across the population, community organizations must take action. Initiatives to promote access to healthcare and support for women are essential during this period of uncertainty.
