Huge Variation In Healthy Life Years From The Age Of 50 In The 25 EU Countries |
"Substantial inequalities in healthy life years (HLYs) from the age of 50 years exist in the 25 countries of the European Union (EU). The higher a country's gross domestic product (GDP) and spending on elderly care, the more HLYs a person at 50 can expect to live. And the EU target of having the employment rate of older workers (55-64 years) at 50% by 2010 is unlikely to be achieved in some countries unless there are substantial health improvements."More from the source: hindu.com
