What can be the combined effect of rapid population growth and weak health infrastructure?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Pressure on the patient-to-health-worker ratio will rise

Direct answer: B is correct. Rapid population growth increases the number of people who may need hospitals, clinics, medicines, vaccination, maternal care, and emergency treatment. Weak health infrastructure means that the number of facilities, beds, equipment, and trained health workers does not grow enough to meet this demand. Step by step, the population and possible patients increase, but service capacity remains limited; therefore, each health worker may have to serve more patients. This creates longer waiting times and reduced access or quality of care. A is wrong because demand rises while capacity is weak. C is wrong because population growth does not remove health needs. D is unrelated: death rates can still be measured. Memory cue: rising demand plus weak capacity means greater service pressure.
