Government health spending is uneven globally

Public finance drives access in many countries.

Policy grids compress billions of people into equal squares — the shock is in the share, not the cell. This grid divides military spending (population-weighted) (2026 snapshot) into colored bands — Public health spend share and Private/out-of-pocket share — using equal squares so you compare shares, not country size on a map.
