Episode description

This episode is all about the healthcare workers who keep Europe's health systems on their feet, and the data that is revealing a crisis. Europe has more doctors and nurses per head of population than anywhere else on Earth, and yet, across the continent, health systems are under strain: overwhelmed, understaffed, and increasingly anxious about the future. The speakers are: Tomas Zapata from the World Health Organization's European office, Katarzyna Ptak-Bufkens, policy officer at the European Commission (DG SANTE) and Monica Pace, statistical officer at Eurostat.
