The World Health Organization (WHO) published this year’s World Health Statistics report earlier this week (13 May, 2015).
The report brings together data covering 194 countries to give an overview of the world’s progress towards the health-related Millennium Development Goals. The Millennium Development Goals are a series of targets set by the United Nations in 2000 in order to end global poverty.
