In the past decade, deaths associated with HIV in Rwanda have plummeted by 78 percent—the largest such drop in the world. Meanwhile, the likelihood of a child dying before turning 5 fell by 65 percent. Between 2005 and 2010, more than 1 million Rwandans lifted themselves out of poverty. These are just a few of the many jaw-dropping statistics cited by Partners In Health Co-founder Dr. Paul Farmer and colleagues in a recent BMJ analysis that explores how Rwanda’s comprehensive approach to strengthening its health system after the 1994 genocide has transformed the country.
