There are still sections in our society that don't have access to primary health care and the reasons are 2 fold: too expensive or too unaware. However, our government has several schemes to assist women falling under a certain financial bracket, but most are ignorant and are never encouraged to learn about these things," added Pooja. #reproductivehealth #maternalhealth #universalhealthcoverage #health #SDG2030
