Abstract

During the twentieth century, the health of the Australian population improved markedly: life expectancy increased; the toll of communicable disease was reduced; and, in more recent times, death rates for cardiovascular disease and a number of major cancers have begun to decline. However, against this backdrop of improving overall health, large health inequalities continue to exist between socioeconomic groups; and, for some conditions, these inequalities are increasing over time.
减少社会经济卫生不平等:与政策相关的问题。
20世纪期间,澳大利亚人口的健康状况显著改善:预期寿命增加;传染病死亡人数减少;最近,心血管疾病和一些主要癌症的死亡率开始下降。然而,在整体健康状况改善的背景下,社会经济群体之间仍然存在巨大的健康不平等;而且,在某些情况下,这些不平等会随着时间的推移而加剧。
