Ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being at all ages is essential to sustainable development. Currently, the world is facing a global health crisis unlike any other — COVID19 is still spreading human suffering, destabilizing the global economy and upending the lives of billions of people around the globe.

The pandemic provides a watershed moment for health emergency preparedness and for investment in critical 21st century public services. Before the pandemic, major progress was made in improving the health of millions of people. Significant strides were made in increasing life expectancy and reducing some of the common killers associated with child and maternal mortality.

India has seen unprecedented improvement in healthcare, shining examples being Eradication of Polio and TB, managing outbreak of COVID 19 throughout the country, handling production, distribution and administering of the COVID vaccination including 2 doses and 1 booster shot, improved Hospitals Infrastructure and Facilities, successful PPP healthcare models among others.

However, huge gaps and malpractices continue to deter the progress of Mission Good Health for All. Substantially higher efforts are needed to fully eradicate a wide range of diseases and address many different persistent and emerging health issues. By focusing on providing more efficient funding of health systems, improved sanitation and hygiene, and increased access to physicians, significant progress can be made in helping to save the lives of millions. Innovations using evolving technologies promise scale and speed.
