Medical conditions in Vientiane, Laos
Pity. From the perspective of national policy, Laos implements free medical care for all, but the quality of medical services provided by Laos is not high, because the country is poor and cannot afford more funds to build modern medical facilities. The mortality rate of infants under 5 years old in Laos is as high as 7%, but the fertility rate is surprisingly low, only 2.32%, and the living and sanitation conditions are poor, resulting in a life expectancy of less than 50 years. Poor medical conditions affect the survival rate and life expectancy of newborns. Lao People's Democratic Republic, referred to as Laos for short, is a landlocked country located in the northern Indian zhina Peninsula.
