_Notes:_ Calculation of life-years saved (LYS) are based on a 3% discount rate, uniform age weights and an average life expectancy of 75 years at the age of 5 (premature death). Same life expectancies and mortality effects are assumed for males and females. Income per capita numbers are in real 2007 dollars at PPP from the Penn World Tables 6.3 (Heston et al, 2009).
