The brochure "Health Situation in the Americas: Basic Indicators 2007" presents the latest information available on 57 basic indicators for the 48 countries and territories as well as the subregions. With regard to the Millennium Development Goals (MDG), we graphically present the malaria indicator with reference to MDG six.

 

The figure illustrates the malaria situation in 2000, 2006, and the proposed over-all goal for 2015. We also include a map showing the 1990 and 2004 urban/rural geographical distribution for the MDG seven, indicator "Population using improved sources of drinking water" at the national level.
