webfact Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 MOPH to reduce number of deaths from 3 major causes BANGKOK, 22 October 2018 (NNT) - The Ministry of Public Health (MOPH) has a policy to reduce the number of deaths from three major causes. The MOPH Permanent Secretary, Sukhum Kanchanaphimai, said in 2019, the MOPH has a policy to reduce the number of deaths from three major causes of deaths in Thailand namely cerebrovascular diseases, Septicemia and traffic accidents. The MOPH will provide a fast track so that patients can have access to appropriate treatment, he said. He went on to say that the MOPH had instructed 81 large hospitals and small hospitals with potential to organize a stroke unit and fast track for patients with a cerebrovascular disease. -- nnt 2018-10-22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alright, I'll be the first: How is the MOPH going to 'reduce' the number of deaths from traffic accidents? The only way I can see it applying, is by the MOPH reducing the number of traffic accidents they report causing deaths? btw, there's an irony in them using the phrase 'fast track' in relation to this subject.

lupin Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 I'm left wondering how they're going to reduce "stupidity" since that seems a major cause of death here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremy50 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 A very sedentary population who eat a lot of salt/fish sauce and oily fatty foods, it's no surprise that strokes are so prevalent. Exercise properly [ 2 hours a day] , cut out salt, meat, fat. Increase the amount of fruit, vegetables, grains, cereals, nuts that you eat. SORTED.
