Buying Disease With Your Money

              "BUYING A DISEASE
               WITH YOUR MONEY"

Money they say "is a legal tender", concertedly agreed upon to serve as a means of exchange for goods and services. Vehemently, it serves a lot of functions, beneficial to humanity.

However, money which should be seen in a positive sense, can be erroneously deplored to cause harm and discomfort. Money should be a defense, but can ignorantly be used to bring medical ailments to the body, through dysfunctional life styles.

Empty plastics of water used by the patients in our hospitals, industries, beaches, schools, markets etc. are been packed by the cleaners while they clean.

    While discarding the empty plastics of water from a discharged patient in one hospital, I discovered one of the keg had saliva inside, meaning that a patient was salivating into one of the bottles. It was observed that this patient had tuberculosis (TB).

This is also applicable to other hospitals, markets, schools etc. in most underdeveloped country.
Some of these patients even urinate inside the containers, Some of these patients have HIV, hepatitis and other infectious diseases.

    Now my worry, people pack these empty plastics of water and sell to people that make *zobo, tiger nut, Ginger, drinks, fura de  nunu, kunu and other local juices. The innocent victims buy these drinks and consume it with great happiness.

    These plastic containers are meant to be recycled or wash through industrial chemicals and water.

  A consumer buys 10 or probably 50 dollars worth of drink packaged with plastic cans with his money and end up buying a life threatening disease or even an ailments that could take his life if not well treated. The cycle keeps going.
Let's be guided. Some careless life styles can turn one into a ''grave" achiever. Life have no duplicate.
