WHO: More than half of child deaths are due to conditions that could be easily prevented or treated given access to health care and improvements to their quality of life (5)

Dear Neil and fellow CHIFA members,

As far as I can tell, the paper made minimal impact if any on the global discourse about building strong CHW and community-based primary health care programs, but perhaps it did make a small contribution toward to emerging consensus that we need to strengthen these programs if we are going to accelerate progress in achieving global health goals and reaching health for all.

Best wishes,

Henry
