To study the problems concerning the nation's viability require the use of data from economy, demography, sociology, physiology, genetics, psychology, medicine indicating the need for a new integrated science — social human biology. At the moment the social human biology as a science has succeeded in elucidation of the mechanisms how the purchasing power and social inequality influence the state of public health. The higher is the purchasing power (the average salary) in the given administrative-territorial unit, the lower are overall mortality rate, mortality of the working-age population and reproductive losses. Life expectancy, on the contrary, is higher with the raise of purchasing power of the population. Based on the synthesis of social and biological sciences conditions for “saving people” and sustainable development of Russia are defined.

The research on occupational hazards and labor conditions, factors of social stress and their health effects in the population, based on scientific work of RAMS Academician B. T. Velichkovskiy, is continued in the Sverdlovsk Region. The studies have demonstrated the relationship between the mortality among the working age population and purchasing power, quality of living conditions, medical care and the extent of social stress in the regional municipalities. We evaluated the economic health damage from premature mortality of the working age population probabilistically related to effects of socio-economic factors.

The model for quantifying health risks of long anthropogenic impacts of high intensity on a human being, as well as a long-term social stress and psycho-emotional tension in the society was presented. The model describes the time-relative decrease in the volume of compensatory reserves of the organism, its adaptive capacity, increase probability of regulation disorders and mortality as a final. These changes deteriorate the health status at the population level. In the article statistical data on the changes in the rates of morbidity, mortality and the life expectancy of people from different Russian regions during the period of 1970–2011 were analyzed. The data on the character of changes in the population health in Russia and other countries depending on the income level and the degree of social and psycho-emotional stresses was discussed.
