What have your experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system been like?
When we asked expats and global nomads in Belgium 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 Belgium. The government has implemented strict measures to contain the spread of the virus, including the closure of non-essential services and the introduction of telemedicine. As a result, many healthcare providers have had to adapt their services to meet the new demands. In addition, the government has provided additional funding to help healthcare providers cope with the increased demand for services. Despite the challenges, the healthcare system in Belgium has been able to provide quality care to those in need," said another in Belgium.
