What have your experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system been like?
When we asked expats and global nomads in Mumbai 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 Mumbai. Hospitals have been overwhelmed with the influx of patients, leading to long wait times and limited access to medical care. Many healthcare workers have been overworked and underpaid, leading to burnout and exhaustion. The government has implemented various measures to help alleviate the strain on the healthcare system, such as providing additional funding and resources to hospitals and clinics. However, the lack of access to quality healthcare remains a major issue in the city. Additionally, the cost of medical care has skyrocketed, making it difficult for many people to afford the necessary treatments. Despite these challenges, the healthcare system in Mumbai has been resilient and continues to provide essential services to its citizens," said another expat in Mumbai, India.
