Public health is a field dedicated to safeguarding and enhancing the health of entire populations by preventing disease, promoting healthy lifestyles, and responding to health threats. Through organized efforts at the community level, public health focuses on collective well-being rather than individual treatment. Key areas include environmental health, sanitation, disease surveillance, vaccination programs, health education, and policy development to address issues such as healthcare access, nutrition, and injury prevention.
