Data and public health programmes

Numbers tell stories. In business, sales and profits show how well things are going. In the medical field, numbers project your health status. Readings like your body mass index, blood pressure and blood sugar give you a snapshot of how healthy you are. When it comes to public health, these numbers answer several questions: how do Jamaicans live longer, and what can we do to improve it? That’s how many national public health programmes are born.
