Indeed we have a greater awareness and the times are getting better day by day in whatever areas you pick infant mortality, healthcare services etc. But at the same time, the only trade-off I see is that in this advancement we are somehow trading off our lifestyle which in turn can be dangerous for overall health.
For example, if you see this article here. Especially the people who are living a comfortable might be self-sufficient economically but losing big on health.
What do you mean by that? Yes there are unhealthy people, and wealthy but unhealthy people. But the health in the past was worse than what it is today.
We should not romanticize the past, our world today is better in every sense, and our health and level of live, is also better than ever. And it will certainly keep getting better, as always, thanks to technology.
