No, but even Brazil can buy more ambulances.
Also in Brazil, you have paramedics that can ride motorcycles and can be sent to the site of an injury first, to stabilize the patient, provide immediate care, and prepare for the arrival of a proper ambulance. Since they are bikes, they can better navigate traffic jams and can get to the site more quickly. If it turns out that an ambulance ride is NOT required, then it can be canceled. There are some paramedics in cars for a similar function, except cars can carry more equipment.
These are trained paramedics who have seen their fair share of injuries. I'd trust them much more than a company health clinic doctor.
There ARE alternatives. Ambulances are a limited resource everywhere, but you can work around the issue.
