COVID-19 had caused a significant decline in the number of patients seeking routine health services related to communicable and cardiovascular diseases in almost all countries belonging to both developed and developing regions. Covid-19 made a massive dent in the diagnostics sector with a steep fall in patient volumes since the beginning of 2020. The pandemic developed an haunting sense of fear among people, which eventually impacted hospital/clinic and lab visits. Regular checkups became cumbersome, stressful and time consuming. Dr. Anthony Fauci, former advisor to former US President Joe Biden asserted that domestic policy failure, and the lack of a public health infrastructure for handling an outbreak of such proportions has resulted such huge human loss. The focus of this book is to take a close look at case studies from various countries and find the lessons learned including rise in mental illnesses and development of health care post covid-19, to remain ready for any such pandemic in the future. |
