If Mrs. and Mr. Z were Mrs. And Mr. Thompson:
… with the same heath picture Mr. Thompson would be an informal
worker , without any economic pension and living with his wife with dementia and his single daughter and his adolescent grandson.
Without health coverage and only access to a basic primary health care in the health center.

Or maybe Mrs. And Mr. Parodi:
… with the same heath picture If Mr Parodi were a retired teacher, he
would have an adequate pension and would be living with his wife with dementia, a nurse, his single daughter and his adolescent grandson.
With health insurance coverage and access to the programs or service available.
