Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Prevention is always better than cures because some diseases cause extensive damage to the body tissues or organs and have a
(i) Negative effect of their capacity to function.
(ii) Permanent or long term debilitating effect.
(iii) Negative mental and psychological effect.
(iv) Financial burden.
Prevention, therefore is easier and effective, than cure of a disease.
