    Abstract
    Health-care systems, including those in countries of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, face a crisis of an increasing burden of chronic disease aggravated by ageing populations and complicated by the continuing risks of infectious diseases and global pandemics. The issues for health-care systems in low-income and middle-income countries are compounded by persistent diseases of poverty, and the inadequately understood comorbidities of both infectious and non-communicable diseases.
