Given the acute housing shortage Europe faced in the immediate aftermath of the war (Diefendorf 1993), it seemed more than reasonable that the construction industry should exploit the possibilities of rationalization. Yet, although Berlin would have been an obvious site for installing the prefabricated houses, Scharoun transcended the desperate situation of his home. 

There is serious shortage of medically qualified personnel in Japanese pharmaceutical companies, or worse is the fact that they do not recognise the importance of such expertise in-house.

As a result of the huge projects, shortages in the main locally produced construction materials have occured. 

The date of the symposium on which this book is based marked the 15th anniversary of the severe petroleum shortage of 1973—1974.

There is a shortage of geriatric specialists, which will take time to be corrected if the 600 drugs under development are to be adequately researched. The rapid growth of sheltered self-care communal housing for active seniors, which guarantee healthcare up to terminal status, illustrates that seniors wish to stay out of nursing homes.
