China has made remarkable gains in reducing the number of women who die during childbirth and boosting child survival rates over the past 70 years, according to new review.
The Lancet report brought together China s health research institutions alongside its international colleagues from Australia, the UK and the US to review the country s progress in maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health and nutrition since 1949.
Murdoch Children s Research Institute (MCRI) Professor George Patton, one of the international researchers, said over the past 70 years China had made a remarkable transition from where the survival of women and children was the priority to one where children and adolescents now have similar health profiles to young Australians.
