In In recent years, China has increased its international engagement in health. Nonetheless, the lack

disaggregated those estimates by disbursing agency and health focus area.

Chronic respiratory diseases, such as asthma and
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, kill more than
four million people every year and affect hundreds
of millions more. These ... erode the health

solid fuels for cooking and heating. In high income
countries, tobacco is the most important risk factor
for chronic respiratory diseases, and in some of
these countries, tobacco use among women and
young people is still increasing.
