it's not just over countries policies, countries like Nepal and Ghana are on the WHO Red list for a reason, they face significant health care workforce shortages which is why you aren't supposed to actively recruit from (but we do and exploitive agencies as shown in the article linked do, upto 20% of our overseas recruitment for nurses and midwives comes from red list countries) them as you are exacerbating a problem that will lead to worse outcomes in those countries for the population. you might be able to argue it's OK if we were balancing the issue with our foreign aid but instead we are spending that in the UK on hotels to pay for a failed immigration policy.
There are always going to be winners and losers in any policy but I think net suffering is larger in the current system
