Fig. 5
Needs-based equity/inequity in receiving assistance with ADLs (y axis) versus national-level health system factors (x axis). The need-related Erreygers’ concentration index (ECI) was standardised for age, sex, and wealth status. The blue and red dashed lines are show the linear fit. The intersections of blue and red line are mainly towards the left, indicating that the changes were driven primarily by “high welfare” countries. Note that the abscissa (x axis coordinate) for a given country may differ before versus after the pandemic (see Methods)
