Latest @WHO health data show that since 2010 there have been declines: - of 40% in new #HIV infections - in tobacco use and alcohol consumption - of 36% in people needing interventions for neglected tropical diseases But here are some of the challenges: - malaria incidence increased 8.5% - anemia affects over 30% of women of reproductive age, with no improvement over the past decade - prevalence of overweight among children under five reached over 5% - violence against women remains widespread These data tell a story of both progress and persistent inequality, with many people, especially women, children and those in underserved communities, still denied the basic conditions for a healthy life. Investing in stronger, more equitable health systems, including resilient health data systems, is essential to achieve #HealthForAll.
