Americas

The Americas, which are also collectively called America, are a landmass comprising the totality of North and South America. It covers an area of 16,428,000 sq mi and 8% of Earth’s total surface.

Health status depends not only on the provision of Health care, but also on the behavior of people and environment they live in. The overall Life expectancy of regions of Americas is high due to its rising living standards, better nutrition and improved drinking water and sanitation facility.

Factors such as the education of the mother, quality of antenatal and childbirth care, preterm birth and birth weight, immediate new-born care and infant feeding practices are important determinants of infant mortality.

Key Health Indicators

Disease Burden

Mortality trends and profile in the region of America have undergone substantial changes in recent decades.

Various demographic changes like the change in lifestyle, environmental, behavioral and economic factors have led to communicable disease burden being replaced by Non-communicable Disease.

Over years improvement in primary health care and disease control and surveillance have reduced the risk of death from vaccine preventable diseases and complication during pregnancy and childbirth.

A large number of mortalities has been noted due to cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and cancer and are therefore becoming the leading cause of death among Americans.

Communicable Diseases on the other hand has shown a rapid decline in Mortality which is due to improved access to water and sanitation services, micronutrient supplementation, primary care and vaccination among other areas.

Some regions show the higher rate of mortality due to Tuberculosis. HIV/AIDS shows in highest prevalence in the region of Caribbean in America.

Health Human Resources

Health workers play an important role in providing services to the population and improving health Outcomes. As per 2017 survey it has been calculated that there are 18 Physicians, 59.7 Nurses and 6.7 Dentists per 10,000 of population in America.

On average across LAC countries, there are 2 doctors per 1 000 population and most of LAC countries stand below the OECD average of 3.5.

Thus, the Continent requires a greater number of Healthcare workers in order to improve the Healthcare Scenario.

The average OECD current health spending per capita in 2017 was around four times that of the countries in LAC.
