Notes on Availability of Doctors, Selected Countries<br />

• <strong>Population</strong> growth can affect a country’s capacity to address the health needs<br />

of its people through trained personnel and accessible health facilities.<br />

• Access to health services varies greatly from country to country. In Greece,<br />

for example, there are 4.4 doctors for every 1,000 people.<br />

• This is over 17 times higher than in Bangladesh, which has only 0.2 doctors<br />

for every 1,000 people.<br />
