Health system crisis in the era of conflicts, climate change, and pandemics

Authors: Dr. Suresh Kumar Rathi, Viveena Rathi,
Publish Date/ Year : | Format: Paperback | Genre : Envrionmental Science | Other Book Detail

The aim of this contribution is to briefly describe the likely influence of conflicts, climate change and pandemic crises on health system. Health and environmental policy in Europe and worldwide halted as a result of the conflict in many nations. Conflict can result in things like a very short life expectancy, a lack of public help, the prescribing of ineffective drugs, and even intrusive surgeries performed without enough justification. The war itself has negative effects on the health care system. The conflict between Russia and Ukraine, both important agricultural nations, has a detrimental effect on the world food supply, which may have an influence on people's health and strain an already weakened healthcare system.
