15、neral Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus during a speech Tuesday in celebration of World Health Day.WHOs new State of the Worlds Nursing 2020 report has identified a global shortage of 5.9 million nurses.

16、merica.Among regions of the world, the Americas have the highest density of nurses at 83.4 per 10,000 people, followed by Europe with 79.3 nurses per 10,000 people.
