5 Countries With Limited Access To Healthcare

3. Niger 

Physicians per Million People: 19 

Niger’s healthcare system faces challenges due to limited resources and infrastructure, exacerbated by socio-economic issues and a high disease burden. COVID-19 has strained the fragile healthcare system, with 172 deaths recorded. Malaria is a leading cause of death, especially among children under five. Other prevalent issues include malnutrition, with over 47% of young children affected. USAID initiatives focus on enhancing resilience, nutrition, healthcare access, and maternal and child health to improve overall health outcomes.
