Together we have made tremendous progress.Health and life expectancy have improved nearly everywhere. Millions of liveshave been saved. The number of people dying from malaria and HIV has been cutin half. WHO efforts to stop TB saved 49 million lives since the start of thiscentury. In 2015, the number of child deaths dropped below 6 million for the firsttime, a 50% decrease in annual deaths since 1990. Every day 19,000 fewerchildren die. We are able to count these numbers because of the culture ofmeasurement and accountability instilled in WHO.
