What have your experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system been like?
When we asked expats and global nomads in Namibia about their experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system, they replied...
"The pandemic has had a significant impact on the healthcare system in Namibia. The government has implemented a number of measures to protect the public, including the closure of borders, the suspension of international flights, and the introduction of a nationwide curfew. The healthcare system has also been affected, with hospitals and clinics facing shortages of medical supplies and staff. Despite these challenges, the healthcare system has been able to provide essential services to the public, including testing and treatment for COVID-19. The government has also provided financial support to healthcare workers and facilities to help them cope with the pandemic," said another expat in Namibia.
