Public Health Metrics On The Go

Today (September 25th, 2017), the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) is pleased to release the Health Atlas mobile application (formally "Health Atlas by IHME") - a mobile app, available on Android and Apple devices, that provides country-level statistics from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD).

You can explore country-level stats on over 200 countries, compare trends for each country from 1990 to 2016, determine which diseases lead to the most loss of healthy life, share interesting findings with your friends and co-workers on social networks and other platforms, customize and filter the data displayed in each graph, easily copy and embed graphs into emails, texts, documents and presentations, and discover leading causes of death and injury by gender, age group, and geography.

You can currently access the app's data in English, Chinese, Spanish and Russian.

If you have feedback or ideas for improvement, send your thoughts to [email protected].
