    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      Accept: 'application/json',
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({ query: '{ health }' }),
  });
  let data = await response.json();
  console.log('DATA:', data);
}

  cache: new InMemoryCache(),
});
 
const HEALTH_QUERY = `
  query {
    health
  }
