Do the solutions for global health lie in healthcare? A recent analysis
article in the BMJ [BMJ 2014;349:g5457 doi: 10.1136/bmj.g5457] should be sobering reading for
all of us. The author Jocalyn Clark reminds us to why putting all our money on
healthcare to solve global health problems is doomed to failure. The article
does a fine job in arguing why we need to find creative solutions that
integrate healthcare into the equation. My own take on the piece is that is has
interesting implications for how we train and educate doctors. I will be distributing
copies of it to the clinicians that I teach, and exploring their reactions to
its implications.
