It appears from Table I.2.2.2 that Morocco has the lowest number of physicians per 1000
people of 0.51 in 2004 and Greece has the largest number or physicians per 1000 people
of 5.35 in 2006. It is also observed that this variable is the lowest in the MENA region
with the exceptions of Israel (3.92) and Lebanon (3.25) while it ranges between 1.84 and
4.87 in the ECE countries and it is at its highest in the other European countries. The total
population per country (Table I.2.2.3) along with the number of physicians per 1000
people can provide the number of physicians per country (Table I.2.2.4).
