II. Respect for the Dignity of Persons
Catechism number 2288
Life and physical health are precious gifts entrusted to us by God.
We must take reasonable care of them, taking into account the needs of others
and the common good.
Concern for the health of its citizens requires that society help in the
attainment of living-conditions that allow them to grow and reach maturity:
food and clothing, housing, health care, basic education, employment, and
social assistance.
