Amazing talk by Hans Rosling - for a long term Investor like me this is GOLD! - I already planned a trip to some of these mad-growth countries to buy properties/land/companies.
"Don't ask others to handwash and stay out of school in order for you to do nothing." What a wonderful statement to summarize the responsibility developed nations should feel in pursuing responsible living choices, such as green energy.
She's likely on a tight timer. She can't let him go into anecdotes at the first question, she has several other to ask and clearly very little time for it.
Dear Professor Rosling, your talk is an eye opener, especially for a Global Health student like myself. Thanks very much, but me and my friends need guidance for contribution as professionals.Please advise.
That part where he mentions knowledge with regards to debate. The understanding of ones own knowledge limitations... There is alot of debate but often lack of knowledge..so.. This understanding of ones own knowledge limitations is good place to start in order to get things more in the right direction...
Yes, it is a good thing that the proportion of infectious illnesses is decreasing places like Vietnam as well as in the West. However, degenerative death brings it own very difficult challenges we must address. It is nice to live longer; however, if those extra years are marked by things like Alzheimer's and other degenerative conditions related to age, then that means very little. I do hope that science will figure out how to slow down the aging process significantly and extend those years in which we are physically and mentally able. Also, someone please give Mr. Rosling a laser pointer :)
Is there more dementia and depression in the U.S. than in Western Europe? In the U.S. we are living longer so we must work more years. Since Ronald Reagan was president, pensions disappeared, Social Security has been underfunded, individual investment portfolio have been decimated by market trends (manipulations). Over 40 workers face more discrimination at work and when they apply for work. The over 40 crowd gets laid off/fired/downsized so a younger person can be hired for less money.
I don't know if I would say it was luck that moved economic development apace with health technology. Sweden, and the rest of the West, was inventing that technology with its new wealthier economy. Other countries can now capitalize on the R&D investment of the Swedes, Americans, Germans, Brits, etc. They are getting a short cut thanks to pre-existing work. You can't consider them in isolation.
"Too much debate, too little knowledge" ... wow, what a point!
This should be on TH-cam's front page
I'm a HUGE fan of Hans Rosling - he has a fantastic way of presenting complicated global health facts in a way that is completely accessible.
A sad loss to the World. I hope his work carries on through his family and colleagues. He was a wonderful human being.

The talk was very good but the moderator drive me crazy, why the hell is she interrupting him when he is answering the questions?...
+Andre Meinhard despite her impolite and stupide questions, Prof Rosling did a great job at answering them. Truly admire him and his work.

Beautiful mind
Amzing Lecture. Love it.
