The shortages are exacerbated by the phenomenon known as ‘brain drain’ where, in its most worrisome forms, skilled and educated citizens from low/middle-income countries depart for high-income ones at very high rates.The data on the empirical results of brain drain are complex and there are many types of effects to consider.
