Personal health depends partially on the active, passive, and assisted cues people observe and adopt about their own health. These include personal actions for preventing or minimizing the effects of a disease, usually a chronic condition, through integrative care. They also include personal hygiene practices to prevent infection and illness, such as bathing and washing hands with soap; brushing and flossing teeth; storing, preparing and handling food safely; and many others. An important way to maintain one’s personal health is to have a healthy diet.

Data from the Cycle Tracking app should not be used to diagnose a health condition. You decide which information is in the Health app, which apps can access your data, and who you share your data with. As we introduce and expand ways to share your health data, privacy continues to be at the core. All of our health features are built to keep your data secure and protect your privacy. Your health data stays on your device and is encrypted when your phone is locked with a passcode, Touch ID, or Face ID.

The universal Health coverage improved from a global average of 45 out of 100 in 2000 to 64 in 2015 and then 67 in 2019. 5 million children died before reaching their fifth birthday in 2020 alone, down from 5.9 million in 2015. Between January 2020 and May 2021, the pandemic may have claimed the lives of 115,500 health and care workers worldwide. In 2020 and 2021, 14.9 million people were estimated to have died due to COVID-19 and its impact on health systems and society. As a result, immunization coverage dropped for the first time in 10 years, and deaths from TB and malaria increased. Urgent and concerted action is needed to set the world back on a trajectory towards achieving Goal 3.
