Because the world urgently needs adequate distribution of both food and medicine, with medical expertise and supplies redistributed so that emerging nations receive proper care, this paragraph best supports which conclusion about global healthcare access?

Difficulty: Medium

Correct Answer: Many people living in emerging nations are not receiving proper medical care.

Explanation:


Given data

  • There is an urgent need to redistribute medical expertise and supplies globally.
  • The goal is to ensure people in emerging nations receive proper care.


Concept/Approach (necessary implication)
If redistribution is urgently needed to achieve proper care, then at present many do not have proper care.


Step 1: Translate the recommendation
"Redistribute" implies a current shortfall where it is needed.


Step 2: Identify the target population
The text emphasizes emerging nations as the beneficiaries.


Step 3: Choose the minimally sufficient inference
Therefore, many people in emerging nations lack proper medical care.


Verification/Alternative
If proper care already existed widely, a call for urgent redistribution would be unnecessary.


Common pitfalls
Do not assume motives of doctors, changes in food production, or industry output; these are not discussed.


Final Answer
Many people living in emerging nations are not receiving proper medical care.
