According to the World Health Organization (WHO), more than 3 billion people worldwide are currently suffering from neurological and mental health disorders. The report reveals that these illnesses cause over 11 million deaths every year. Despite being preventable and treatable, a large portion of patients—especially in low-income and rural areas—remain without access to proper care due to poor health infrastructure, poverty, and social stigma. WHO data shows that only 63 countries have national policies on neurological diseases, while just 34 allocate specific budgets for mental health. The organization’s Deputy Director-General, Dr. Jeremy Farrar, expressed deep concern, noting that low-income nations have 80 times fewer neurologists than wealthy countries. WHO urged all governments to take coordinated, data-driven action to improve mental health services, expand accessibility, and prioritize mental well-being in national health strategies to curb millions of preventable deaths.
