Introduction World Health Statistics 2009 contains WHO’s annual compilation of data from its 193 Member States, and includes a summary of progress towards the health-related Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and targets. This edition also contains a new section on reported cases of selected infectious diseases. The contents of this book have been collated from publications and databases produced and maintained by WHO’s technical programmes and regional offices. Indicators have been included on the basis of their relevance to global health, the availability and quality of the data and the reliability and comparability of estimates. This set of indicators provides a comprehensive summary of the current status of national health and health systems, including: mortality and burden of disease, causes of death, reported infectious diseases, health service coverage, risk factors, health systems resources, health expenditures, inequities and demographic and socioeconomic statistics. The section on inequities presents statistics on the distribution of selected health outcomes and interventions within countries, disaggregated by sex, age, urban and rural settings, wealth and educational level. Such statistics are primarily derived from analyses of household surveys and are currently available only for a limited number of countries. All statistics have been cleared, in consultation with Member States, as WHO’s official figures, unless otherwise stated. The estimates published here should, however, still be regarded as best estimates made by WHO rather than the official view of Member States. As the demand for timely, reliable and comparable health statistics continues to increase, so does the necessity to communicate clearly the quality and limitations of these statistics. An online version of this publication and metadata describing the sources, estimation methods and the quality of estimates is available at http://www.who.int/statistics. The online version will be regularly updated as new data become available during 2009. WHO presents World Health Statistics 2009 as an integral part of its ongoing effort to inform better measures of population health and national health systems.

Part I Health-related Millennium Development Goals
Summary of status and trends Health is at the heart of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Goals 4, 5 and 6 specifically focus on health, but all the MDGs have health-related aspects; achieving them will not be possible without progress on food security, gender equality, the empowerment of women, wider access to education and better stewardship of the environment. At the midpoint between 2000 and 2015, the analysis shows encouraging signs of progress, particularly in child health; it points to areas where current gains need to be sustained, particularly in relation to AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria; and areas where there has been little or no movement, notably maternal and newborn health. More detailed and updated data for 2008, reported in World Health Statistics 2009, show major differences in progress between and within countries and regions. Looking forward to 2015 and beyond, the challenges presented by weak health systems, the health transition and emerging health threats will become increasingly prominent. Overall, the proportion of children under five years of age suffering from under-nutrition (according to the WHO Child Growth Standards) declined from 27% in 1990 to 20% in 2005. However, progress has been uneven and an estimated 112 million children are underweight. Undernutrition is an underlying cause in more than one third of child deaths. In 2007, there were an estimated 9 million child deaths, significantly fewer than the 12.5 million estimated in 1990, with a 27% decline in the under-5 mortality rate over that period to 67 per 1000 live births in 2007. Reducing child mortality increasingly depends on tackling neonatal mortality; globally, an estimated 37% of deaths among children under five occurs in the first month of life, most in the first week. Countries making the least progress are generally those affected by high levels of HIV/ AIDS, economic hardship or conflict. Much of the progress in reducing child mortality can be attributed to increased immunization coverage, use of oral rehydration therapies during episodes of diarrhoea, use of insecticide-treated mosquito nets, access to artemisinin-based combination therapies, efforts to eliminate disease due to Haemophilus influenzae type b infection and reduced disease incidence due to improved water and sanitation. However, because the availability and use of proven interventions at community level remain low, pneumonia and diarrhoea still kill 3.8 million children under five each year. Every year some 536 000 women die of complications during pregnancy or childbirth, 99% of them in developing countries. The global maternal mortality ratio of 400 maternal deaths per 100 000 live births in 2005 has barely changed since 1990. Most maternal deaths occur in the African Region, where the maternal mortality ratio is 900 per 100 000 live births, with no measureable improvement between 1990 and 2005. Progress in reducing maternal mortality and morbidity depends on better access to, and use of, good maternal and reproductive health services. The proportion of pregnant women in the developing world who had at least one antenatal care visit increased from slightly more than half at the beginning of the 1990s to almost three quarters a decade later. Over the period 2000–2008, 65% of births globally were attended by skilled health personnel, 4% more than in 1990–1999. Globally, the contraceptive prevalence rate increased from 59% in 1990–1995 to 63% in 2000– 2006. Nonetheless, in some regions it remains very difficult to reduce the considerable unmet need for family planning and the high rates of adolescent fertility. Globally, there were 48 births for every 1000 women aged 15–19 years in 2006, only a small decline from 51 per 1000 in 2000.

In 2006, an estimated 3300 million people were at risk of malaria. Of these, some 1200 million were in the high-risk category (living in areas with more than one reported case of malaria per 1000 population per year). Although it is still too early to register global changes in impact, 27 countries (including five in Africa) have reduced reported cases of the disease and/or deaths resulting from it by up to 50% between 1990 and 2006. Coverage of interventions for the prevention and treatment of malaria has increased. There has been a significant growth in the production and use of insecticide-treated mosquito nets, although global targets are still not being met. By June 2008, all but four countries and territories with a high burden of the disease had adopted artemisinin-based combination therapy as the first-line treatment for falciparum malaria, and use of combination therapies is being scaled up. The MGD target in respect of halting and reversing the incidence of tuberculosis was met globally in 2004. Since then the rate has been falling slowly.1 Tuberculosis prevalence and death rates per 100 000 population declined from 296 in 1990 to 206 in 2007 for the former, and from 28 in 1990 to 25 in 2006 for the latter. Globally, the tuberculosis case-detection rate under the DOTS approach increased from an estimated 11% in 1995 to 63% in 2007. The rate of improvement in case detection slowed after 2004, largely as a result of earlier successes in the countries with the largest number of cases. Data on treatment success rates under the DOTS approach indicate consistent improvement, with rates rising from 79% in 1990 to 85% in 2006. Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis and HIVassociated tuberculosis pose particular challenges in some regions. New estimates indicate that 2.7 million people were newly infected with HIV during 2007 and that there were two million deaths related to AIDS, bringing the total number of people living with HIV to 33 million. The percentage of adults living with HIV globally has remained stable since 2000. Use of antiretroviral therapy has increased; in the course of 2007, about one million more people living with HIV received antiretroviral therapy.2 However, despite this, of the estimated 9.7 million people in developing countries that need treatment, only 3 million were receiving the medicines. Progress has been made in prevention, but at the end of 2007 only 33% of HIV-infected women had received antiretroviral drugs to reduce the risk of mother to child transmission. An estimated 1200 million people are affected by neglected tropical diseases, chronic disabling infections that thrive in conditions of impoverishment and weak health systems. In 2007, 546 million people were treated to prevent transmission of lymphatic filariasis. Only 9585 cases of dracunculiasis (guinea-worm disease) were reported in the five countries in which the disease is endemic, compared with an estimated 3.5 million reported in 20 such countries in 1985. The global prevalence of leprosy at the beginning of 2008 stood at 212 802 reported cases, down from 5.2 million cases in 1985. Lack of safe water and poor sanitation are important risk factors for mortality and morbidity, including diarrhoeal diseases, cholera, worm infestations and hepatitis. Globally, the proportion of the population with access to improved drinking-water sources increased from 76% to 86% between 1990 and 2006. Since 1990, the number of people in developing regions using improved sanitation facilities has increased by 1100 million. Nevertheless, in 2006, there were 54 countries in which information was available where less than half the population used an improved sanitation facility.

Although nearly all developing countries publish an essential medicines list, the availability of medicines at public health facilities is often poor. Surveys in about 30 developing countries indicate that availability of selected medicines at health facilities was only 35% in the public sector and 63% in the private sector. Lack of medicines in the public sector forces patients to purchase medicines privately. In the private sector, however, generic medicines are often sold at several times their international reference price, while originator brands are generally even more expensive. The following charts provide country by country and regional summaries of progress for key MDG indicators for which data are available for most countries. For each indicator, countries are sorted within the relevant WHO region by level of the indicator at latest available year. Countries with no data, or for which a particular indicator is not relevant, are included at the end of each regional list. Depending on the availability of data for each indicator, there are three types of charts.
Chart type I For three indicators: under-5 mortality rate, access to improved drinking-water sources, and access to improved sanitation facilities, the charts show data for the latest available year, index of trends since 1990 (1990=100) , and the index of overall trend between 1990 and 2015 (1990=100) required for the country to achieve the Millennium Development Goal.
Chart type II For five indicators: children under five years who are underweight, measles immunization coverage in children under one year, births attended by skilled health personnel, HIV prevalence in adults 15–49 years, and tuberculosis treatment success under DOTS, the charts show data for the latest available year and index of trends since 1990 (1990=100).
Chart type III For 10 indicators: maternal mortality ratio, contraceptive prevalence rate, adolescent fertility rate, antenatal care coverage (at least one visit), unmet need for family planning, proportion of people aged 15–24 years with comprehensive correct knowledge of HIV/AIDS (%), antiretroviral therapy coverage among people with advanced HIV infection, mortality rate due to malaria, children aged under five years sleeping under insecticide-treated mosquito nets, and children aged under five years who received any antimalarial treatment for fever, the charts show only data for the latest available year. Further details can be found in the country tables as indicated in each chart.

Part II Global Health Indicators
Table 1
World HealtH StatiSticS 2009
Mortality and burden of disease Indicators derived from mortality rates provide a good picture of overall population health. These indicators include infant and child mortality (the probability of dying between birth and 1 and 5 years of age, respectively), adult mortality (the probability of dying between 15 and 60 years of age) and overall life expectancy at birth. Almost 20% of all deaths are of children less than five years old. Neonatal mortality (deaths during the first 28 days of life per 1000 live births) accounts for a large proportion of child deaths in many countries. Neonatal mortality rates are considered a useful indicator of overall maternal and newborn health and the care that mothers and babies receive. Estimates of mortality are derived from death registration data reported annually to WHO. For countries where such data are not available or are of poor quality, survey and census sources are analysed and used to create life tables for each country. Countries with low life expectancy invariably have high levels of child mortality. For example, life expectancy at birth in the WHO African Region was estimated at only 52 years in 2007, compared with 76 years in the WHO Region of the Americas. Child mortality in the two regions was 145 per 1000 live births and 19 per 1000, respectively. In several African countries, recent improvements in child survival have not been reflected in higher life expectancy because they have been offset by higher levels of adult mortality due to HIV/AIDS and, in some countries, conflict. However, mortality statistics alone are not sufficient to fully describe, measure and compare the health states of populations. This is because death rates underestimate the burden of ill-health caused by noncommunicable adult disease by not providing any information on non-fatal health outcomes. Hearing loss, visual impairment and mental disorders are the most common causes of disability worldwide. A summary measure of population health therefore needs to capture both fatal and non-fatal health outcomes. Life expectancy estimates reflect how many years a person might be expected to live. Healthy life expectancy is an estimate of how many years they might live in “good” health. These estimates are based on country life tables, analyses of 135 causes of disability for 17 regions of the world and 69 health surveys in 60 countries. The estimates of healthy life expectancy are more uncertain than those for life expectancy, because it is difficult to ensure comparable measurements of disability across countries and account for limitations in the data.

Table 2
World HealtH StatiSticS 2009
Cause-specific mortality and morbidity Out of every 10 deaths worldwide, 6 are due to noncommunicable conditions; 3 to communicable, reproductive or nutritional conditions; and 1 to injuries. Many developing countries have mortality patterns that reflect high levels of infectious diseases and the risk of death during pregnancy and childbirth, in addition to the cancers, cardiovascular diseases and chronic respiratory diseases that account for most deaths in the developed world. Years of life lost (YLL) take into account the age at which deaths occur by giving greater weight to deaths occurring at younger ages and lower weight to deaths occurring at older ages. Globally, communicable diseases account for 51% of years of life lost, with noncommunicable diseases accounting for 34% and injuries for 14%. However, there are large variations across regions. In high-income countries, communicable diseases account for only 8% of years of life lost, compared with 68% in low-income countries. This table includes country-specific results from death registration, health system information systems, incidence and prevalence surveys, survey and census data on child deaths, sibling deaths and deaths in the household as well as studies on deaths due to HIV/AIDS and conflict. There are considerable uncertainty ranges for many countries due to limitations in data availability, quality and timeliness. Uncertainty in estimated all-cause mortality for 2007 ranges from ±1% for high-income countries to ±15–20% for sub-Saharan Africa, reflecting a large difference in data availability. Uncertainty ranges are generally larger for deaths from specific causes. For example, the relative uncertainty for deaths from ischaemic heart disease ranges from around ±12% for high-income countries to ±25–35% for subSaharan Africa. For any given disease, incidence is the number of new cases each year, prevalence is the number of people with the disease at a point in time, and mortality is the number who die from that cause each year. While global tuberculosis prevalence is estimated to have decreased between 1990 and 2007 due to improved treatment, incidence has increased over this period, mainly due to a resurgence in the WHO African and European Regions. These numbers are surrounded by much uncertainty due to an absence of population-based data on the rates of clinically confirmed tuberculosis cases. In most countries, tuberculosis case-detection estimates are based primarily on the number of people with pulmonary tuberculosis who present to health facilities; those who do not reach health facilities are not included in the calculations. The prevalence of HIV infection is highest in the African Region. Two thirds of the global total of 33 million people with HIV live in this region. In countries with generalized epidemics, HIV prevalence is estimated from antenatal clinic attendees and population-based surveys. In concentrated and low level epidemics (where HIV prevalence in pregnant women is below 1%), estimates are derived from surveillance of populations with high-risk behaviours.

Selected infectious diseases This table is compiled from countries’ most recent reports of cases of selected infectious diseases. These are officially reported numbers, but vary greatly in quality, representativeness, comparability and information value. The selection of diseases for inclusion in this table was made primarily on the availability of data. Where possible, the table distinguishes between zero cases reported and no information available for a country. In isolation, these numbers provide no indication of the relative risk of disease, nor of the quality of disease reporting in different countries. However, this table does indicate the current status of officially reported infectious disease data at the global level and the major reporting gaps. Given the variation in the methods countries use to obtain these numbers, no attempt has been made to calculate incidence or prevalence. Further information on disease incidence and prevalence and immunization coverage rates for vaccine-preventable diseases can be obtained from the relevant disease-specific programmes at WHO. To interpret these numbers, one needs to consider both epidemiological patterns and data collection efforts in specific countries. Some diseases – malaria and yellow fever, for example – are endemic to certain geographical regions, but are extremely rare elsewhere. Diseases such as plague are prone to outbreaks which cause case numbers to fluctuate wildly over time. Some diseases are best tackled with preventive measures such as mass drug treatment, so reporting the number of cases is a lower priority than estimating the population at risk. For vaccine-preventable diseases, case numbers are affected by immunization rates. Diseases such as H5N1 influenza, Japanese encephalitis and malaria are difficult to identify without specialized laboratory tests that are often not available in developing countries. In many settings, cases of some diseases – malaria is a common example – are identified through clinical signs and symptoms alone. Some diseases are reported under the International Health Regulations, while other diseases are monitored by countries or by WHO in the context of specific control programmes. Despite ongoing efforts to enhance disease surveillance and response, many countries face challenges in accurately identifying, diagnosing and reporting infectious diseases due to the remoteness of communities, lack of transport and a communication infrastructure, and shortage of skilled health-care workers and laboratory facilities to ensure accurate diagnosis. No inference can be drawn from these figures about a country’s effort or progress in controlling particular diseases. Case numbers are a poor indication of the burden of disease. Diseases such as H5N1 influenza and plague have high mortality rates, while diseases such as polio and leprosy have low mortality but result in heavy losses of healthy years of life. Some diseases with very small case numbers can potentially cause devastating epidemics, so mandatory reporting is essential. For diseases that are considered eradicable, such as leprosy and polio, case reporting is essential to ensure eradication efforts are targeted to the affected areas. In 2007, over 200 000 new cases of leprosy were reported globally and 1385 new cases of polio. The true numbers of cases are likely to be higher. 59

Health service coverage Health service coverage indicators reflect the extent to which people in need actually receive important health interventions. Such indicators include the care of women during pregnancy and childbirth, reproductive health services, immunization to prevent common childhood infections, vitamin A supplementation in children, and treatment for common childhood diseases and infectious diseases in adults. The data show that there have been significant improvements in the coverage of public health interventions since 1990. For example, immunization rates for measles, diphtheria, pertussis and tetanus, hepatitis B, and Haemophilus influenzae type B have increased in most regions. However, there are significant variations between regions. The highest immunization rates are found in the Americas and Europe and the lowest rates in the South-East Asia Region. Coverage indicators are typically calculated by dividing the number of people receiving a defined intervention by the population eligible for or in need of the intervention. For example, the indicator on immunization coverage among 1-year-old children is calculated from the number of children having received a specific vaccine divided by the total population of children under one in each country. For indicators on antenatal care and skilled attendance at delivery, the denominator is live births. The main sources of data on coverage are household surveys and respondents’ answers to questions about service use. The principle types of surveys are the Expanded Programme on Immunization (EPI) 30-cluster survey, the UNICEF Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS), and the Demographic and Health Survey (DHS). The other source of data is administrative records of routine service provision, which provide data on the numerator. The denominator is estimated on the basis of census projections. Neither source of data is perfect: administrative records tend to overestimate coverage as a result of double counting in the numerator and uncertainty in the denominator. Household surveys are generally considered to be more reliable but are subject to respondent reporting errors as well as to margins of uncertainty due to sampling errors. In generating global estimates, it is good practice to reconcile data from multiple sources in order to maximize the accuracy of the estimate. Regional aggregates are not available for several coverage indicators, reflecting limited availability of data for several indicators and also due to the fact that some conditions – such as malaria – are not of public health significance in several countries.

Risk factors Certain risk factors are associated with increased mortality and morbidity. The most common preventable risks are: poor infant feeding practices, low birth weight, being overweight or obese, childhood and maternal under-nutrition, unsafe sex, use of tobacco, harmful use of alcohol, unsafe water and lack of sanitation. Collectively, these preventable risks contribute to over 40% of the 58 million deaths that occur worldwide annually and one third of global loss of healthy life years. Exclusive breastfeeding among children under six months of age has increased in recent years and the rate in developing countries is almost 40%. Low birth weight is an important predictor of health and survival of the newborn and reflects maternal malnutrition, ill-health and overwork and inadequate health care in pregnancy. The countries with the highest incidence of low-birth-weight infants are located in Africa or South-East Asia, where at least 22% of infants are affected. A high proportion of infants are not weighed at birth, and estimates rely on mothers’ subjective assessments. Child growth is the most widely used indicator of nutritional status. Fewer data are available on levels of obesity in children, but in some countries in the European Region as many as 20% of children are overweight. The prevalence of current tobacco smoking is an important predictor of the future burden of tobacco-related diseases. In 36 countries, over 25% of youths smoke. Harmful use of alcohol can cause chronic alcohol dependence, hepatic cirrhosis, cancer and acute injuries. Of the 20 countries with the highest alcohol consumption per capita, 18 are European. Factors that influence the reliability of this indicator include: unmeasured informal production, tourist consumption, stockpiling, waste and spillage, smuggling, duty-free sales and variations in beverage strength. Unsafe water supplies and inadequate sanitation and hygiene increase the transmission of diarrhoeal diseases, schistosomiasis, trachoma, hepatitis and cholera. Although more people have access to safe water and improved sanitation globally compared with those in 2000, rapid population growth has hampered improvements in many countries. Close to a billion people are still without access to improved water supplies, half of whom live in the African and Western Pacific Regions. Over 2 billion people are without improved sanitation. Data on risk factors and health-related behaviours are generally drawn from household surveys. Where data are not available, statistical techniques may be used to develop estimates.

Health workforce, infrastructure, essential medicines Data on the resources available to the health system are essential to enable governments to determine how best to meet the health-related needs of the population. Data indicate that globally, there are 13 physicians per 10 000 population, with large variations between countries and regions. In the African Region, there are only 2 physicians per 10 000 compared with 32 per 10 000 in the European Region. Globally, there are 28 nurses and midwives per 10 000 population, ranging from a low of 11 per 10 000 in the African Region to a high of 79 per 10 000 in the European Region. While there are no gold standards for assessing the sufficiency of the health workforce, WHO estimates that countries with fewer than 23 health-care professionals (counting only physicians, nurses and midwives) per 10 000 population will be unlikely to achieve adequate coverage rates for the key primary health-care interventions prioritized by the Millennium Development Goals. Estimates of the numbers and density of the health workforce refer to the active health workforce: people currently participating in the health labour market. The data are derived from multiple sources including: national population censuses, labour force and employment surveys, health facility assessments and routine administrative information systems (including registries on public expenditure, staffing and payroll as well as professional training, registration and licensure). This diversity of sources means there is considerable variability in the coverage and quality of the data and it is not always clear whether both the public and private sectors are included. Hospital beds are used to indicate the availability of inpatient services. There is no global norm for the density of hospital beds in relation to total population. In the European Region, there are 63 hospital beds per 10 000 population compared with 10 per 10 000 in the African Region. Statistics on hospital bed density are generally drawn from routine administrative records but in some settings only public sector beds are included. In most developing countries the availability of medicines – where these are provided through public health facilities at a low cost or free of charge – is very poor. In all regions, availability is better in the private sector, but can still be poor. Surveys in about 30 developing countries indicate that only 35 % of selected medicines were available in the public sector and 63 % were available in the private sector. In the private sector, medicines cost on average about 650% more than the international reference price, while in the public sector – where patients pay for medicines – the average cost is 250% more than the international reference price. 95

Health expenditure Globally in 2006, expenditure on health was about 8.7% of gross domestic product, with the highest level in the Americas at 12.8% and the lowest in the South-East Asia Region at 3.4%. This translates to about US$ 716 per capita on the average but there is tremendous variation ranging from a very low US$ 31 per capita in the South-East Asia Region to a high of US$ 2636 per capita in the Americas. The share of government in health spending varies from 76% in Europe to 34% in South-East Asia. Where government expenditure in health is low, the shortfall is made up in low-income countries by private spending, about 85% of which is out of pocket. This means that payment is made at the point of accessing health services. Such payment does not allow for pooling of risks and leads to a high probability of catastrophic payments that can result in poverty for the household. External resources are becoming a major source of health funding in low-income countries. From a share of 12% of total health expenditure in 2000, external resources represented 17% of low-income country health expenditure in 2006. Some low-income countries have two thirds of their total health expenditure funded by external resources. In these situations, predictability of aid is an important concern. These data are generated from sources that WHO has been collecting for over 10 years. The most comprehensive and consistent data on health financing are generated from national health accounts that collect expenditure information within an internationally recognized framework. National health accounts trace the financing as it flows from sources which provide the funds to agents who decide on the use of the funds to providers and beneficiaries of health services. Not all countries have or update national health accounts and, in these instances, data are obtained through technical contacts in country or from publicly available documents and reports. Missing values are estimated using various accounting techniques depending on the data available for each country. WHO sends all such estimates to the respective ministries of health every year for validation. 107

Health inequities In general, global reporting of health indicators focuses on national averages. However, data on the distribution of health within countries and between population subgroups are equally important. Such data help to identify health inequities – unfair and avoidable differences in health – that arise from factors such as socioeconomic status (education, occupation and household wealth or income), geographical location, ethnicity and sex. This section presents data using three health indicators − births attended by skilled health personnel, measles immunization coverage among 1-year-old children, and under-5 mortality − disaggregated according to urban or rural residence, household wealth and maternal educational level. The evidence from 90 countries that have the necessary data shows that in many countries there are significant inequities. For example, in half the countries, child mortality rates are at least 1.4 times higher in rural areas compared with urban areas and at least 1.9 times higher among the poorest 20% of households compared with the richest 20% of households. In 64% of countries, the proportion of births attended by skilled personnel is at least 20% higher in urban than in rural areas. There appears to be less inequity in measles immunization; the urban–rural difference is 20% or higher in only 10% of countries. The main source of these data are Demographic and Health Surveys and Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys. For the disaggregations by household wealth, the total population is grouped into wealth quintiles based on relative differences in household wealth within the country, not on an absolute wealth criterion. The estimates are subject to normal sample variability which is usually indicated by confidence intervals. However, only point estimates are shown in this table. The data presented refer to ratios and differences between the most advantaged and least advantaged groups. More complex measures are needed to reflect the situation across all population groups such as the middle household wealth or education groups. Work is under way to reach consensus around the conceptual and statistical issues involved in constructing and interpreting these inequity measures. 119

Demographic and socioeconomic statistics Demographic and socioeconomic factors are major determinants of health. As fertility declines, income rises, populations age and become more urbanized, and epidemiological profiles also shift, with an increasing share of the burden of disease accounted for by noncommunicable diseases, accidents and other external causes. Increasing education, especially of women, also has a major impact on the use of health care and on health status. Data on demographic and socioeconomic trends are also important for making statistics comparable across countries. Disease incidence, prevalence and mortality rates require reliable population-based denominators. The world’s population continues to grow but at a slower rate than a decade ago. The average annual growth rate was 1.3% for 1997–2007 compared with 1.6% for 1987–1997. There are large regional differences in growth rates. The growth rate in Africa is over 10 times that of the European Region, where populations are actually shrinking in several countries. Regions with higher growth rates tend to have younger populations; in the African Region, 43% of people are under the age of 15 compared with only 18% in the European Region and 28% globally. Fertility is also on the decline worldwide, particularly in the Eastern Mediterranean Region, where women now have two children fewer than the previous generation. Despite such declines, fertility is still relatively high compared with other regions, at an average of 3.4 children per women compared with 2.7 in South-East Asia and 2.2 in the Americas. In the African Region in 2007, the average women had around 5 children, only a slight decline from the fertility levels of 1990. By contrast, levels of fertility in the European Region are below replacement level, with an average of 1.6 children per woman. The world’s population is shifting towards urban areas, with an estimated 49% living in urban areas in 2007 compared with 43% in 1990. The definition of an urban area varies from one country to another, making regional comparisons unreliable. Since 1990, the gross national income per capita has almost doubled. The highest percentage change over the period of 1990–2007 is in the South-East Asia and Western Pacific Regions where it has increased by about 190%. These demographic and socioeconomic data are drawn from a variety of sources both in countries and from organizations including the World Bank, United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and the United Nations. They are based on a combination of administrative records, population-based surveys, census and civil registration data and statistical modelling to account for missing values. For more information about the sources and methods for a particular indicator, please refer to the relevant footnotes and the responsible organization’s web site. 131

Footnotes These summary tables represent the best estimates of WHO – based on evidence available in 2004 – rather than the official estimates of Member States. These estimates have been computed using standard categories and methods to ensure cross-national comparability. Therefore, they are not always the same as official national estimates, nor necessarily endorsed by specific Member States. For indicators with a reference period expressed as a range, figures refer to the latest available year in the range; except in Health inequities, where the figures refer to the period specified. For specific years, indicator definitions and metadata, please refer to http://www.who.int/whosis. ... Data not available or not applicable. The global, regional and income aggregates for rates and ratios are weighted averages when relevant while for absolute numbers they are the sums. Certain Member States do not have an associated income group and are not included in aggregate calculations. Aggregates are calculated only if data are available for 50% of the population within the group.

Footnotes differ by country, results are not exactly comparable across countries. Median availability is determined for the specific list of medicines in each survey and do not account for alternate dosage forms or strengths of these products or therapeutic alternatives. Public sector data may be limited by the fact that the list of survey medicines may not correspond to national essential medicine lists (where these exist), and some public sector facilities may not be expected to stock all of the survey medicines. This has been addressed in the revised edition of the survey tool, which allows public sector data to be analysed by essential medicine list status and level of care. e

Data are unadjusted for differences in MSH reference price year used, exchange rate fluctuations, national inflation rates, variations in purchasing power parities, levels of development or other factors. In each survey, median consumer price ratios are obtained for the basket of medicines surveyed and found in at least four medicine outlets. As baskets of medicines differ by country, results are not exactly comparable across countries. However, data about specific medicines is publicly available on http://www. haiweb.org/medicineprices/ and matched basket comparisons on a subset of medicines can be made.

Health expenditures
a
Health expenditure series. Geneva, World Health Organization, February 2009 (latest updates are available on http:// www.who.int.nha/country/en/index.html). The regional, income and global figures are calculated using Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) terms. Ratios with numbers less than 0.05% may appear as zero. For per capita expenditure indicators, this is represented as <1. Countries where fiscal year begins in July; expenditure data have been allocated to the later calendar year, e.g. data for 2006 are for fiscal year 2005–2006.
b
In some cases the sum of the ratios of general government and private expenditures on health may not add to 100 because of rounding.
c
A new Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) series resulting from the 2005 International Comparison Project (ICP) estimated by the World Bank has been used.
d
Estimates should be interpreted with caution as these are derived from scarce data.
e
Ratios published in this report are calculated using the licit GDP (i.e. excluding opium) and government expenditures excluding external development budget expenditures.
f
Missing per capita expenditure on health levels are due to nonavailability of purchasing power parity. International $ values.
g
About 30% of the expenditure in residential aged care facilities has a health purpose, but it is difficult to estimate routinely so it is not included in health at present. This health expenditure was about $2.1 billion in 2005–2006 or 0.2% of GDP.
146
h
Adjustments for currency change were made for the entire series.
i
Per capita expenditure on health levels is based on preliminary purchasing power parity international $ estimates.
j
Estimates updated using newly accessed data from national health accounts, surveys, or information provided during national consultation.
k
The General Government Expenditure on Health (GGHE) and Private Expenditure on Health (PvtHE) estimates for 2000 correspond to the concepts and definitions described in OECD Health Data, also implemented by WHO/NHA. The GGHE and PvtHE estimates for 2006 correspond to the concepts and definitions adopted by the Joint Health Accounts Questionnaire Eurostat-OECD-WHO.
l
For description of 2000 estimates see WHO/NHA web site. 2006 estimates correspond to the concepts and definitions adopted by the Joint Health Accounts Questionnaire Eurostat-OECD-WHO.
m
Recent census in the country has shown differences in population data. However, the per capita levels in this table are estimated based on UNPOP data.
n
Data for financial year ending 30 June are taken for the later year. Population data revised with United Nations Population Division 2006 revision.
o
Exchange rate changed from 2.15 Won in 2001 to 152 Won in 2002. This explains sudden changes in per capita levels between 2000 and 2005.

Sources: Unless otherwise stated, data are derived from Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) since 1990. The DHS figures stratified by “place of residence” and “educational level of mother” were extracted using STATcompiler software or DHS reports (http://www.measuredhs.com/, accessed on December 1, 2008). The DHS figures stratified by “wealth quintile” were extracted from DHS reports. When not available in the reports – mostly the case in surveys conducted in 2001 or earlier – the figures were extracted from Gwatkin DR, Rutstein S, Johnson K, Suliman E, Wagstaff A, Amouzou A.
