Global challenges
Africa’s healthcare system is structurally weak with estimated spending of 2.3% of its GDP for health-related services and a life expectancy of only 63 years in some countries.
The hospital bed capacity is low (approx. 8 hospital beds per 10.000 inhabitants) and more importantly, many countries lack access to essential hospital care for large shares of their population.
Around 29% of people must travel more than one hour to access a health facility. In 2020, the World Bank stated that existing hospitals and the health system could not adequately respond to people’s daily health care needs.
Challenges:
- Poor healthcare infrastructure
- Vulnerable parts of society are hit hardest
- Destroyed healthcare infrastructure in some countries
- Existing healthcare infrastructure with limited water/electricity supply
Indonesia sits on a Volcano belt which causes 90% of earthquakes globally. In September 2018, a disastrous earthquake and tsunami hit the island Sulawesi near the city of Palu.
More than 4,000 people lost their lives, 14,000 people were injured, many of them severely. Regional hospitals were overwhelmed. The entire region suffered from a lack of clean water, food, and electricity which further deteriorated public health.
Only a month later, the monsoon season started which further aggrieved the people who had not yet recovered from the disaster. Even months after the disaster, the Red Cross stated that especially children, pregnant women, and elderly people suffered from poor health and inadequate healthcare.
This further puts strain on the already underdeveloped healthcare infrastructure in Indonesia. Government investment in the health system has been limited, leading to insufficient facilities and the workforce needed for public services.
Challenges:
- Poor healthcare infrastructure
- Break down of infrastructure
- Focus on more pressing matters
- Long-term health problems due to poor sanitation
On August 4, 2020, Lebanese capital Beirut was shocked by a massive explosion that had a catastrophic impact on the entire city.
The disastrous blast destroyed large areas of the port and caused damage to vast parts the city’s structure. At least 190 people were killed and more than 6,500 injured. The effects of the explosion were even more devastating in the aftermath, as Beirut’s hospital infrastructure, which had already been overly burdened with COVID-19 cases, broke down.
Three hospitals were evacuated as severely damaged or destroyed. According to the WHO, more than half of the 55 hospitals and health centers in the city were non-functional. With still operating hospitals overloaded and pandemic lockdown suspended.
During the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 Europe suffered many deaths due to an overburden of the existing healthcare infrastructure.
Many cities lacked ICUs and ventilators to treat the new disease.
Hospitals were overwhelmed by the increased influx of patients and triage was applied in some cases to deal with limited capacity.
Challenges:
- Break down of infrastructure
- Lack of equipment
- Lack of medical staff
