World Health Days play a crucial role in spreading awareness about major diseases, public health challenges, and preventive healthcare across the globe. These special days, observed on specific dates throughout the year, are dedicated to educating people, encouraging early diagnosis, promoting healthy lifestyles, and supporting global health initiatives. For medical students, doctors, and healthcare professionals—especially those preparing for competitive exams—remembering these important world health days is not only academically important but also essential for understanding the global burden of disease and the need for collective action toward better health for all.
