Venezuela Releases Data on Health Crisis
委内瑞拉发布健康危机数据
After nearly two years of not revealing any data about its nation's health, Venezuela has released a disturbing report. Since July 2015, malaria cases have increased by 76%. There has also been a sharp increase in maternal and infant deaths. Venezuelan citizens say that they are often turned away from hospitals unless they have their own supplies and medicine. With such a shortage of medical supplies, hospitals have also become a place for thieves. Many patients buy medicine on the black market because it's the only way to get it. There is also a shortage of medical staff. In the past few years, approximately 20% of medical professionals in Venezuela have left the country due to the health crisis.
委内瑞拉近两年没有发布任何关于国民健康的数据，最近它发表了一份令人不安的报告。自2015年7约起，疟疾病例上升了76%。孕产妇死亡和婴儿死亡率也大幅度上升。委内瑞拉市民称他们经常被医院拒接，除非他们自己带有物资或药品。医疗物资奇缺，医院也常被小偷光顾。很多病人都在黑市上购买药品，因为这是唯一的办法。医疗人员也紧缺。过去几年中，委内瑞拉大约有20%的医疗人员因为健康危机而离开了这个国家。
