Health in Liberia : ウィキペディア英語版 | Health in Liberia
Liberia faces widespread health problems, including Ebola, endemic malaria, malnutrition, widespread mental health problems〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18698066 )〕 and a low level of public health awareness. == Health infrastructure ==
Liberia has 5,000 full-time or part-time health workers and 51 Liberian doctors to cater to a population of 3.8 million, according to the 2006 health survey. That is equivalent to about 76,000 civilians being attended to by 1 doctor. Most of the hospitals, clinics and equipment were destroyed due to its 14 years of civil conflict from 1989 all the way until 2003.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.state.gov/r/pa/ei/bgn/6618.htm )〕 The strengthening of the health sector faced financial problems. The government used only 16.8% of the total health expenditure in the country.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.healthsystems2020.org/section/where_we_work/liberia )〕 Liberia has heavily relied on the international community for health infrastructure and aid. International relief organizations assisted the government to rebuild health facilities and provide essential health care for its citizens. The World Health Organization (WHO) donated equipment and helped provide and assist in vaccinating the population to prevent the spreading of many communicable disease.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.who.int/countries/lbr/en/ )〕 The Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunisation (GAVI) funded 160 million US dollars to improve the health care system and increase the quality of immunization services in Liberia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.gavialliance.org/country/liberia/ )〕 Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), an international medical humanitarian organization, helped Liberia by operating free hospitals right after the civil war (2003) and treated more than 20,000 women and children per year.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.doctorswithoutborders.org/press/release.cfm?id=4551 )〕
