Health Gains in Developing Countries
From the numbers given above, we can find that in the past 30 years, the life expectancy has risen while the infant morality has declined in developing countries. In 1960, the life expectancy was only 40, but in 1990, it reached to 60. At the same time, the infant morality decreased from 20% in 1960 to 10% in 1990.We should say that this is a miracle the developing countries made on their way to improve peoples health. The creating of this miracle may owe to the following reasons. The first reason is that the development of these countries economy enables the governments to invest more money to take care of peoples health. The second reason is that more and more new drugs and advanced medical instruments were produced, a lot of incurable diseases could be easily controlled under modern technology. The third reason lies in the widespread of education, by receiving more education, people in the developing countries find a lot of scientific ways to keep themselves strong and healthy. We believe that as the development of the whole world, people in the developing countries will become more and more healthy. |
