What does health mean?
Is health simply the opposite of illness, or does it have a deeper meaning? For the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS), health is not a state of total physical and mental equilibrium, as previously defined by the WHO. To be healthy, people need certain conditions met, such as housing, food, employment, and income, for example. This is discussed in this video.
The SUS Series was created in 2015 with the goal of engaging the public in conversation about the Unified Health System (SUS). The idea stemmed from the need to discuss the SUS beyond its problems and what the traditional media usually covered.
