Margaret Chan, director-general of the World Health Organization, said that a government's ability to provide adequate health and social measures depended on having fundamental health capacities in place.
"The right to health depends on regulatory authorities that keep water, air, food and medicines safe, and protected populations from exposure to harmful chemicals," she noted.
She also stressed that legislation was one of the best ways to confer population-wide protection against threats to health, and universal health coverage operated as a significant poverty reduction strategy and, thus, as a nation-building strategy, it was one of the most powerful social equalizers among all policy options.
