title: [Health depends on quality of life].
abstract: Social-economic conditions, access to care and prevention are important indicators of a population's health status. These factors partly explain the level of health and the low life expectancy of travelling people. By taking into account the difference in lifestyle and the material and psychological conditions of travellers, areas to explore for improving the provision of care can be envisaged.
