The Yemeni people have been left to fend for themselves and faced many problems such as hunger, the ongoing war, infections, diseases\u00a0and lack of equipment\u00a0even before the COVID-19 pandemic. All together it is a humanitarian crisis. Only around 50% of the hospitals and\u00a0healthcare facilities are in full working condition, and even\u00a0those that are functioning are operating at\u00a0nowhere near full potential. Healthcare staff and facilities lack\u00a0necessary essential equipment and money.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>As, sadly, is common in conflict-affected regions, the violence has brought with it a secondary disaster of infectious disease outbreaks. Yemen is not only battling COVID-19 amid a catastrophic war, but also\u00a0has to deal with other diseases such as cholera, diphtheria and measles. A number of key measures are needed to support the current efforts against this deadly epidemic and its potential subsequent waves as well as\u00a0to prevent further epidemics in Yemen.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s12992-021-00732-1","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,22]],"date-time":"2021-07-22T06:03:00Z","timestamp":1626933780000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":27,"title":["Conflict and COVID-19 in Yemen: beyond the humanitarian crisis"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"17","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7278-2289","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mohammed","family":"Alsabri","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ayman","family":"Alhadheri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Luai M.","family":"Alsakkaf","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jennifer","family":"Cole","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"732_CR1","unstructured":"Global Humanitarian Overview 2021.
