What are the Consequences of Resource Misallocation?
Misallocation can have severe consequences, including:
Increased Morbidity and Mortality: Inadequate resources in critical areas can lead to higher disease incidence and death rates. Wasted Resources: Funds and supplies are squandered on ineffective interventions, reducing the overall efficiency of public health efforts. Health Disparities: Vulnerable populations may suffer disproportionately due to inequitable resource distribution.
