Health trends, inequalities and opportunities in South Africas provinces, 1990-2019: findings from the Global Burden of Disease 2019 Study
Conclusions
Reductions in HIV/AIDS and related conditions have led to improved health since 2007, though most provinces still lag in key areas. To achieve health targets, provincial governments should enhance health investments and exchange of knowledge, resources and best practices alongside populations that have been left behind, especially following the COVID-19 pandemic.
