过去150年经历了全球范围内的人类健康的变化,这种变化使得人们活得更长,更健康,生活更具创造性。更好的健康对于人口规模和结构具有深刻的影响,也推动了世界经济的增长。作者认为,在评估经济进步和经济损失时,“全部收入”概念是一个比人均GDP更好的指标,并主张大幅度增加对卫生部门的投入。 The past 150 years have seen a global shift in human health that has led to longer, healthier lives and more creative lives. Better health has a profound impact on the size and structure of the population and also contributes to the growth of the world economy. The author believes that in assessing economic progress and economic losses, the concept of “total income” is a better indicator of per capita GDP and advocates a substantial increase in investment in the health sector.
