[CNS Rewind] Top 5 global health interviews of 2016

Looking back at interviews with global health experts featured in over 400 articles published by CNS Correspondents in Asian and African countries in 2016, we are compelled to say that each voice that was documented was invaluable and a 'must-heard' voice for discourses on sustainable development. We cannot overemphasize the importance of each of these spotlight interviews and critical issues they highlighted.

Having said that, for CNS Rewind-2016 sake, if we look at some indicators such as the interaction on CNS website (reads, likes, comments, or other analytics), prints through syndication, interaction on Twitter, Facebook page, LinkedIn, email listservs, editorial markers, among others, here are top-5 global health interviews from 2016, followed by a few more interviews we feel must also get acknowledged.
