South Sudan is one of the poorest parts of the world. The population density is, except a few exceptions, very low. In terms of health care, this is a serious problem, especially in providing of medical staff as well as centers and facilities. Most socio-economic and health indicators are below the level which reaches the rest of Sudan.
