General Healthcare State in Balochistan

-
1) The current state of healthcare in Balochistan The current state of healthcare in Balochistan is abysmal. The province has the lowest number of hospitals per capita in Pakistan and the second lowest number of health workers per capita. In addition, the quality of care is poor, with a high rate of neonatal and maternal mortality. The Balochistan government has been slow to respond to the healthcare crisis in the province. In 2016, the provincial government allocated just 2.5% of its budget to healthcare, which is far below the World Health Organization’s recommendations of 5-7%.

-
1. Balochistan's Problem and Rising Hatred The problem in Balochistan is not new. It is a decades-old problem that has been simmering since the days of Pakistan’s independence. The province has been the scene of a low-level insurgency since the late 1970s, with Baloch nationalist groups demanding more autonomy and a greater share of the province’s resources.
