| Annotation | As the World Health Organization (WHO) marks its 50th anniversary, this report examines health trends over the past five decades, assesses the current global situation, and predicts how health conditions, diseases, and the tools for managing them will evolve up to the year 2025. It summarises the main trends in mortality since 1955; looks at health problems across the life span, and the progress made in the past 50 years for all age groups; and discusses the three main global trends that affect health: economic trends, population trends, and social trends.
