Abstract

Health systems in developing countries are weak and fractured. There is endemic lack of accountability and poor legislative controls over health delivery. Health budgets are paltry with criminal negligence of health and education sectors since inception of many of these nations. There are misplaced priorities in resource allocation. Wars, regional conflicts manmade and natural disasters have pushed these civilizations further back in time. Lack of cohesion in health infrastructures reflects a major failure by policy makers and managers.
