NEW WHO PUBLICATION: SUMMARY MEASURES OF POPULATION HEALTH

WHO has published "Summary Measures of Population Health: Concepts,
Ethics, Measurement and Applications," a new document that addresses a
wide array of critical issues regarding the measurement of population
health using comprehensive indices combining information on mortality
and ill-health. The various uses of such summary measures of population
health are described, and the appropriate measurement framework and
specific ethical and social value choices are discussed and debated.
