In’the’past,’health’was’defined’simply’as’the’absence’of’disease;’health’was’measured’by’monitor
ing’the’mortality’and’morbidity’of’a’group.’Over’the’past’century,’however,’the’focus’of’health’h
as’shifted’to’disease’prevention,’health’promotion,’and’wellness.’The’World’Health’Organizati
on’(2013)’defines’health’as’"a’state’of’complete’physical,’mental,’and’social’well-
being,’and’not’merely’the’absence’of’disease’or’infirmity."‘The’gains’in’child’health’have’been’h
