520 _a During the past 20 years there were tremendous improvements in life expectancy and child mortality and remarkable progress in various disease elimination/eradication efforts. To the extend that developing countries made greater progress in life expectancy and infant mortality in particular, there was some closure of the gap in health inequity. However, for some health status issues, inequities widened and greater inequities are foreseen. Improvements in health status probably involved a number of social and economic factors as well as preventive and curative health services. Reversall in health status probably involved these same factor as well as other changes in disease agents, hosts and the environment. For some health status issues, trends were difficult to assess because baseline data ferlimater were not established when the Global Strategy for Health for all by the year 2000 was launched; or because evolving definitions and estimation techniques discouraged comparison and diminished interest in trends.
