Deeper thoughts of MO.

During the past couple of weeks every Thursday and Friday we do MO. We did many activities that involves teamwork, communication, and patience. For example, we played a little game to give us a visual idea of what really is public health. In the game, classmates played a role of life guards, EMT, nurses, and doctors. All the jobs that are needed to tend patient. The problem was that people were falling in the river, over and over again. The doctors couldn't see each patient all at once. So public health build a bridge going across the river. With the bridge people weren't falling into the river as often. This game gave me a clear idea of what public health really is. As MO went on in our class I also learned how the health in our community are gradually getting worse by the minute. Most lower income places are lacking grocery stores and all they can buy food at a decent distance is liquor stores. MO helped me learn what it is like to eat from a liquor store and the importance of having a grocery store near. As more people are getting diabetes the government isn't going to do much about it. The health of our future depends on public health youth educators. We can be the new health for our future. And with MO's help we will be able to obtain a visual yet intellectual information about how to provide better health and community to the people.
