3. Politics
Why are politics on a list of the 10 biggest health problems in the world in 2016? Well, that’s quite simple – without the proper policies there is no proper healthcare. That’s why the healthcare systems in many countries are crumbling, that’s why hospitals are lagging behind with updates, it’s why doctors in certain countries seek to emigrate rather than keep working for poor wages. Without proper policies, the people are at risk. The changes taking place at the White House, for instance, may affect tens of millions of Americans that has previously (finally) been able to afford coverage under Obamacare. President-elect Trump wants to scrap Obamacare either fully or in part, which will affect a lot of citizens.
