Should preventive healthcare justify large-scale investment and widespread adoption?

Viewpoint B:
Prevention through screening and lifestyle interventions can reduce disease burden, hospitalizations, and long-term costs, while improving life expectancy and quality of life.
Is prevention a cost-effective long-term strategy or an overextended approach with uncertain net benefit?
