“......Reflecting on how health should position itself, in a very different
world 10 years on, he adds: “10 years ago the CMH had its impact by showing
how better outcomes could drive and protect economic growth.
Today, the situation is very different. No-one believes that more
investment in health is going to help solve the banking or sovereign debt
crises, stabilise food prices or redress the inequities of globalisation.
At the same time, peoples health remains vitally important as a measure of
the success of policies in all these areas.............”
