Summary 

Except for the sections on surveillance and tuberculosis, all data for the 2003 Zambia Health Statistics Bulletin comes from the Health Management Information System (HMIS). However, for various reasons, including data availability and limited coverage, some indicators collected through the HMIS are not represented in this report.

This report covers topics such as disease burden for major causes of illness, notifiable diseases, availability of essential drugs, and health services delivery and utilization. All population-based denominators are based on the Central Statistical Office Population Projections Report from November 2003.
