Feedback:
In the past, health was defined simplyas the absence of disease; health was measured by mo nitoring
the mortality and morbidity of a group. Over the past century, however, the focus o f health has shifted
to disease prevention, health promotion, and wellness. The WorldnHealt h Organization (2013) defines
health as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social w ell-
being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." The gains in child health have b eennhuge,
but, unfortunately, these gains are not shared equally among all children.
