WHO says too many children are dying prematurely in its European region

In order to lessen the number of children dying from preventable causes in its European region, the World Health Organization has issued a warning that immediate action is required.

The World Health Organization (WHO) stated in its most recent summary of health trends in the region1 that protecting children's health required special attention because 75 647 children will die before the age of five in 2022.

The report, which is done every three years, emphasizes the need to improve outcomes by increasing population health and accessibility to essential healthcare services. “Too many infants still die unnecessarily before the age of 5 years,”

It says. "Closing the gap between member states with the highest and lowest mortality rates remains a challenge, particularly given that some have recorded relatively higher rates over the past five years." …
