Assessing India's health with a single question

(Université de Genève) A country can estimate its population's health status by using national survey questionnaires. Researchers at UNIGE began wondering whether it was possible to use the question -- 'What would you say about your health status?' - in India, that is used in Europe. They compared Indian and Swiss databases. They found that the question provided a sound understanding of the health status of the Indian population and that the Indian data was more reliable than the Swiss.
