In 2004, The Lancet asked: ‘Can we achieve health information for all by 2015?’ (Godlee et al. 2004). Nearly 10 years later, we continue to see a lack of reliable relevant information hinder the provision of health care in resource-poor countries. The healthcare information gap often feels more like a chasm than a gap, and thus, many individuals in resource-poor countries die because healthcare professionals lack access to quality information. However, we must also celebrate the great achievements that have been made in reducing the information gap since 2004.
