About this eBook

Collaboration between The Lancet and Imperial College London, UK, has resulted in a new Commission, which examines how medical technology should best be used to improve health in low- and middle-income countries. The report concludes that in many cases, medical technology—almost exclusively developed in rich countries—is simply inappropriate for use in poorer nations.

Such a feel good report. Alot of relevant examples to developing countries. Eye-opening facts and figures of how the world has become a better place thanks to the contribution of WHO action plans. We in the developing countries continue to turn to WHO guidelines and implementations as well as to be inspired to aid our own people to better health outcomes
