A book on health and economic challenges amid global conflict, climate change, pandemics, and energy crises

  • 1. Alumni, Faculty of Pharmacy, Dhaka University

Description

War, inflation, food shortages, and the COVID-19 pandemic's long tail have all sent shockwaves across the globe. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 and Ukraine war, financial markets have been incredibly volatile, and the commodity markets are in turmoil. The global conflicts have increased in upward tension on food and energy prices, pushing inflation to its highest level in decades in the European Union, the United States, Asia, Africa, and many other countries. However, the global economic slowdown, significant decline in the value of financial assets, decline in imports and exports, contraction of industrial production, rise in inflation, decline in wages, increase in unemployment, collapse of social security, and numerous natural disasters destroy not only the industrial economy but also the public health that have already grossly victimized by the pandemic. War, conflicts, climate change, the energy crisis, and pandemics are all directly and indirectly causing the crisis to worsen. All of these problems have the potential to put civilization in danger by preventing the availability of many essential healthcare services, including access to the healthcare system, vaccination, poison control, insurance coverage or co-payment policies, health vigilance and surveillance, tracking of adverse drug reactions, telemedicine support, health education or awareness programs, newer drug inventions, and related technological advancements and innovations.
