Do human rights matter to health?

Jerome Amir Singh1, Michelle Govender, Edward J Mills.   

Abstract

Legal instruments and litigation as a way to enforce the rights to life and to health is a relatively new strategy that is increasingly common. We show how legal measures have been used to attain health and human rights with case examples from India and South Africa that resulted in large public-health benefits.
