Essay Question:
What is one change that should be remembered about the twentieth century?
There are many important changes, both technological and cultural, in the twentieth century. In my opinion, the most important of these are the advances that are made in medical science. The development of vaccines and antibiotics, increased access to health care, and improvements in surgical techniques are all things that improved, and served the lives of other people around the world.
Vaccines and antibiotics have served the lives of many people. Fifty years ago, many peoplebecome crippled and died from polio. Now, the polio vaccine is available everywhere. In the past, people could die from simple infections. Now, penicillin and other antibiotics make it easy to cure infections.
Increased access to health care has also improved the lives of millions of people. In the past,many people lived from hospitals or clinics, and now health centers have been built in many parts of the world. More people have the opportunity to visit a doctor or nurse before they become very sick. They can be treated more easily. They are sick less and this leads to a better quality life.
Improved surgical techniques make it easier to treat many medical problems. Microscopic and laser surgery techniques are more efficient than older methods. It is easier for the doctor to perform them, and easier for the patient to recover. Surgery patients can return to their normal life more quietly now than they could in the past.
In conclusion, everybody needs good health in order to have a good quality of life. Advances in medical science have improved the lives of people around the world. They are improvements important to everyone.
