A couple of years ago, the COVID-19 virus changed the world’s approach to being healthy. Unfortunately, while receiving a vaccine shot can minimize the symptoms, there is no cure for the COVID-19 virus. As a result, the primary focus of attention is on the physical, mental, and social well-being of men, women, and young people.
