Read about the stark disparities in global OHNS clinician density, ranging from 0.18 clinicians per 100,000 population in Africa to 5.70 in Europe, in a recent publication by Global OHNS Initiative members. These findings underscore the urgent need for targeted workforce interventions to address inequity in access to OHNS care.
