Abstract
During 1999, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published a series of reports that identified the 10 most significant advances in human health since 1900. The main criterion for selecting achievements was their impact on mortality, morbidity, and disability in the population. The significance of these data goes beyond national specifics, and with some reservations, they reflect the global progress in health care in the 20th century.
