Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Global burden of disease is a calculation of health disparities, which include the disadvantages socially, economically, or environmentally. GDB data are used to generate projections of health into the future, calculating the disability-adjusted life years (DALY). Global burden of disease was not used to create the World Health Organization's budget. The WHO has been engaged to emphasize the impact of disability and death rates of different countries. The impact of public health is calculated using presumed years saved and not life expectancy or longevity of life years.
