Resumen |
Investment in health and wealth act synergistically to the benefit t of both. This point is acknowledged by the Greek Government as President of the Council of the European Union, yet seems overlooked in domestic policy, where 6 years of economic contraction compounded by poorly targeted budget cuts have reversed health gains. In today’s Lancet, Alexander Kentikelenis and colleagues explain how short-sighted measures intended to improve the country’s economy have been counterproductive for the health of the Hellenic people. |
