While the global undersupply of surgical care is well recorded, contextual explanations are absent. Simultaneously, outbreaks of infectious diseases force the international community more and more frequently to urgent health action and lead to an increasing security focus on global health. Considering the limiting character of resource allocation, all other medical conditions must compete with the top spot of health security matters. This research introduces the constructivist concept of securitization according to the Copenhagen School to explain the structural handicap of global surgery. Therefore, a case study of the epidemic of Ebola virus disease in Sierra Leone in 2014 was conducted to study the contextual and linguistic structure. Epidemic spread of Ebola in Sierra Leone and the necessarily enacted vertical health measures weakened surgical care and its future development. Security concerns led to a reduced supply, utilization, and training programs of surgical health services. Surgical conditions are non-contagious without the risk for disease outbreaks, hardly preventable and their treatment is often infrastructurally demanding. These key features mark their low securitizing potential. Additionally, as public health emergency of international concern is the only securitizing institution in the realm of health, infectious diseases have a privileged role in health security. Securitization serves as an explanatory model for the inferior political position of global ....
