Original question: "Thinking generally, which of the following, if any, do you see as the biggest health problems facing people in your country today?"

The samples in Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Indonesia, Ireland, Malaysia, Mexico, Peru, Singapore, South Africa, Thailand, and Turkey are more urban, more educated, and/or more affluent than the general population. The survey results for these countries should be viewed as reflecting the views of the more “connected” segment of their population. The “Global Country Average” reflects the average result for all the countries where the survey was conducted.

"The sample in India consists of approximately 2,200 individuals, of whom approximately 1,800 were interviewed face-to-face and 400 were interviewed online."
