When it comes to health, we all know that making proactive choices—like exercising more—is beneficial. But with limited time, energy, and budgets, how do you decide where to invest? Should you buy running shoes, sign up for a gym membership, or grab a 10-session fitness pass?
This dilemma extends beyond personal health. On a larger scale, it’s the same challenge we face in preventing infectious diseases. For instance:
- What if a low-cost prevention strategy can keep more people healthy?
- But what happens when that strategy becomes unexpectedly expensive?
- How do we make prevention efficient and allocate resources wisely?
On Science Day (Dag van de Wetenschap) Lander Willem will dive into these critical questions, exploring the balance between well-being (quality of life) and wealth (financial resources). You’ll leave with insights on how to evaluate health-related decisions and how society can optimize its resources for maximum impact.
