Abstract
Health and globalization have received tremendous attention in sociology. Aging and longevity are not the only reasons for its popularity, which is also influenced by the global health system, governance, and culture. The emergence of COVID‐19 has certainly contributed to the expansion of health research in globalization. Sociologists pay attention to the social stratifications of health status and other related variables created and affected by globalization. Others also study how medical health knowledge and technology cross national borders and identify distinct types of health problems, concerns, and issues. In such processes, international organizations play important roles in disseminating information on health and illnesses, supplying preventive knowledge, and regulating medical interventions. Sociology has shown the significance of class, gender, and culture to health and care in globalization. Maternal health and children's mortality are major challenges that affect well‐being and life expectancy. Some important contributors in daily life to such health outcomes are lifestyle choices and living environments. Health information and professionals cross national boundaries with some regularity, creating more effects for future sociological investigations. Healthcare worker migration, medical tourism, and artificial intelligence in healthcare, in particular, are modern phenomena that expose inequalities in the sociological study of health and globalization.
