Abstract
Debate around poverty and health has been going on for decades. More central to this debate in recent times is the argument whether poverty leads to ill-health, or poor health is a precursor of poverty. Although ample scientific evidence currently supports both arguments, the fact remains the same: poverty and ill-health almost always co-exist.
