Fighting or suppressing symptoms can get you results quite quickly.
Only, if you stop taking medication for symptom relief, everything you were suffering from often comes back quickly.
Rather, I focus on how to look at the totality of complaints and then, what should be done to ensure that the complaints disappear and, if possible, are no longer an issue for a very long time

This means that measures are taken in people who have already been sick, to prevent them from getting sick again.
The central government talks about this in their own reports:
