SOMALİ'DE COVİD-19'UN SAĞLIK SİSTEM ÜZERİNDEKİ ETKİSİ
Somali, kırılgan ve istikrarsız bir statüye sahip olan Afrika'daki en az gelişmiş ülkelerden biridir, ülkenin sağlık sisteminin zayıflamasına yol açan uzun süren çatışmalar, uzun süren savaşlar ve siyasi huzursuzluk yaşamaktadır. Somali'de, ilk COVID-19 vakası Mart 2020'de bulundu, o sırada ülke 2019'da çöl çekirgelerinin saldırısı ve sel (nehir ve sel baskınları) olan iki zorlukla daha karşı karşıya mücadele ediyordu. Mart 2020'de ilk doğrulanmış COVID -19 pandemisi sonrasında Somali sağlık kurumları sınırları ve okulları kapatmak, seyahatleri kısıtlamak aynı zamanda çoğu grup etkinliğini yasaklamak gibi olağanüstü önlemler aldı. Somali, ülkenin zayıf ve az gelişmiş sağlık sistemi nedeniyle COVID-19 salgınını kendi başına kontrol etmek ve başarılı bir şekilde harekete geçmek için mücadele etti. Bu kapsamda, Somali'deki DSÖ Ülke Ofisi (WCO), ilk vaka 16 Mart 2020'de doğrulanmadan önce bile Ocak 2020'de COVID-19 hazırlıklarına başladı. Somali Federal Hükümeti, Birleşmiş Milletler ve diğerleri ile işbirliği içinde COVID-19'un kapsamını sınırlamak için ücretsiz bir iletişim merkezi kurdu, insanların ellerini dezenfektanla yıkamak için su noktaları, insanlara kişisel koruyucu ekipman sağlamak (maske ve eldiven gibi), yolcuları taramak ve aşı kapsamını artırmak gibi önlemler almışlar.

İMPACT OF COVİD-19 ON HEALTH SYSTEM İN SOMALİA
Somalia is one of the least developed countries in Africa with a fragile and unstable status, experiencing protracted conflicts, long-running wars and political unrest, all of which lead to a weakening of the country's health care system. In Somalia, the first case of COVID-19 was found in March 2020, at that time the country was facing two other challenges, which were the attack of desert locusts and flooding (river and flash floods) in 2019. In March 2020 the first verified COVID -19 pandemic later, Somali health institutions took extraordinary precautions such as; closing borders and schools, restricting travel, and banning most group events. Somalia has grappled to control and successfully take action to the COVID-19 epidemic on its own due to country's poor and underdeveloped health care system. In this manner, the WHO Country Office (WCO) in Somalia began the preparations for COVID-19 in January 2020, even before the first case was verified on March 16, 2020. The Federal Government of Somalia, in cooperation with the United Nations and others, has established a toll-free contact center, water points to wash the people their hands with soap, providing the people personal protective equipments (such as masks and gloves), screening travelers, increase vaccination coverage and etc to limit the extend of COVID-19.
