BookDoc raises concerns on sedentary lifestyle
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a sedentary lifestyle to become a norm and poses significant public health issues. Sedentary lifestyles appear to be increasingly widespread in many nations despite being linked to a range of chronic health conditions.
Thus, BookDoc has taken the liberty to encourage an active lifestyle to tackle this issue by organizing a virtual run and providing rewards from BookDoc’s attractive partner in staying active to achieve daily steps goals.
We are glad to see such support from the public in making the event a success. The fundraising is a collaborative effort from the participants and the organizers. BookDoc is blessed to have such amazing partners that are always in continuing support of each other.
