What are the common health issues in rural or resource-limited settings?
Rural and resource-limited settings often experience a higher prevalence of infectious diseases, chronic conditions, and malnutrition. Infectious diseases such as malaria, tuberculosis, and HIV/AIDS are more prevalent due to limited access to healthcare services and preventive measures. Chronic conditions like hypertension and diabetes are also rising, partly due to lifestyle changes and lack of healthcare resources. Malnutrition remains a significant issue, particularly among children, due to food insecurity and lack of access to nutritious foods.
