http://twitter.com/WHO via IFTTT

@WHO: "The most cost-effective investments in health are those that prevent or delay people needing to use the health system, by addressing the reasons people get sick & die in: the food they eat the 🥤 they drink the air they breathe the conditions in which they live & work"-@DrTedros

http://twitter.com/WHO via IFTTT

@WHO: "However, not all investments in health are created equal, and how countries finance health can also have implications beyond the health sector. But the economics of health go far beyond the health system itself"-@DrTedros

http://twitter.com/WHO via IFTTT

@WHO: "This is critical for health, but also means that more people will receive a regular salary. And because women make up 70% of the global health workforce, jobs for #healthworkers are also an investment in gender equality"-@DrTedros https://t.co/oEpv0lkThb

http://twitter.com/WHO via IFTTT

@WHO: "Investments in health systems don’t just prevent damage, they can also boost the economy. For example, the @UN Commission on Health Employment and Economic Growth has projected the creation of about 40 million new health sector jobs by 2030 globally"-@DrTedros

http://twitter.com/WHO via IFTTT
