Conflict and COVID-19: a double burden for Afghanistan’s healthcare system

Peer-reviewed publication

September, 2020

Afghanistan

This year, COVID- 19 exacerbated the situation and overwhelmed the healthcare system even further. As predicted, an influx of migrants suspected of having COVID-19 contributed to community transmission and led to an increase of cases across the country.
