“As the first European Union country to achieve this public health milestone, Denmark's success is a testament to the strength of its maternal health system and its long-standing commitment to reaching every pregnant woman with the care she needs. Elimination means testing and treating at least 95 out of every 100 pregnant women – and keeping new infant infections below 50 per 100 000 births, year after year.”
What Dr Hans Henri P. Kluge has said
“Across the WHO European Region, 1 in 4 children aged 7–9 years is living with overweight or obesity, while in Norway more than 1 in 5 children are affected. This is not a matter of individual choice alone: children are growing up in environments shaped by pervasive and powerful marketing of unhealthy foods. Norway's new legislation is a bold, evidence-based step to change that reality.”
