TL;DR: A novel approach to modelling life expectancy, all-cause mortality and cause of death forecasts —and alternative future scenarios—for 250 causes of death from 2016 to 2040 in 195 countries and territories is provided.

TL;DR: The pace of progress achieved between 1990 and 2016 varied, with markedly faster improvements occurring between 2000 and 2016 for many countries in sub-Saharan Africa and southeast Asia, whereas several countries in Latin America and elsewhere saw progress stagnate after experiencing considerable advances in the HAQ Index between1990 and 2000.

TL;DR: It is estimated that 18·2 million people died worldwide because of the COVID-19 pandemic (as measured by excess mortality) over that period, and the number of excess deaths was largest in the regions of south Asia, north Africa and the Middle East, and eastern Europe.

TL;DR: GBD 2016 provides an updated and expanded evidence base on where the world currently stands in terms of the health-related SDGs, and substantially revised the universal health coverage (UHC) measure, which focuses on coverage of essential health services, to also represent personal health-care access and quality for several non-communicable diseases.
