Iceland is the healthiest country in the world. The World Health Organization (WHO) ranked it first out of 188 countries. One of the successes of this Scandinavian country is the significant reduction in the number of smokers and its well-functioning public health payment system.
Iceland's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) index score is actually the same as Singapore and Sweden, at 85. However, due to the aforementioned successes, the WHO has named it the healthiest country. Of the ten healthiest countries in the world, seven are from Europe, and the other three are Singapore, Canada, and Australia.
