Abstract :
When viewed from the developing world, the prospects or implementation of adequate healthcare technologies are dim unless world inequality is corrected. It could be argued that medicine comes secondary to education since it is hardly possible to develop a working program for endemic disease control and better nutrition in populations unable to read and understand directions and measures. Expensive instruments become useless if plugged in the wrong voltage. When the maintenance support base is 5,000 or 10,000 km away, whatʹs the use of transferring any technology?.
