Ium.WHAT IS THE RIGHT TO HEALTH?
A.Key aspects of the right to health
The right to health is an inclusive right.We frequently associate the right to health with access to health care and the building of hospitals. This is correct, but the right to health extends further. It includes a wide range of factors that can help us lead a healthy life. The Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, the body responsible for monitoring the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, calls these the “underlying determinants of health”. They include:-Safe drinking water and adequate sanitation;-Safe food;-Adequate nutrition and housing;-Healthy working and environmental conditions;-Health-related education and information;-Gender equality.
The right to health contains freedoms.Thesedis freedomsinclude the right to be free from non-consensual medical treatment, such as medical experiments and research or forced sterilization, and to be free from torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.
The right to health contains entitlements.Thesedis entitlementsinclude:-The right to a system of health protection providing equality of opportunity for everyone to enjoy the highest attainable level of health;-The right to prevention, treatment and control of diseases;-Access to essential medicines;-Maternal, child and reproductive health;-Equal and timely access to basic health services;-The provision of health-related education and information;-Participation of the population in health-related decision-making at the national and community levels.

Health services, goods and facilities must be provided to all without any discrimination.Non-discrimination is a key principle in human rights and is crucial to the enjoyment of the right to the highest attainable standard of health[…].
All services, goods and facilities must be available, accessible, acceptable and of good quality.[…]-They must be accessible physically (in safe reach for all sections of the population, including children, adolescents, older persons, persons with disabilities and other vulnerable groups) as well as financially and on the basis of non-discrimination. Accessibility also implies the right to seek, receive and impart health-related information in an accessible format (for all, including persons with disabilities), but does not impair the right to have personal health data treated confidentially.[…]
