COVID-19 is spreading rapidly across the
world. Governments of even the wealthiest
countries are struggling to cope with the scale
of the Pandemic.
For Iraq this is nothing short of a disaster. Iraq's health care system is in almost
permanent crisis, constantly on the brink of
collapse.
Iraq is a country devastated by decades of war, conflict, corruption
and poverty, and now its beleaguered staff
and broken infrastructure is being asked to
deal with one of the most virulent viruses the
world has ever known.
The hundreds of thousands of displaced Yazidi's living in the sprawling camps in the north are
particularly at risk. The AMAR Foundation's field teams are
doing all they can to limit the spread of Covid-19 by
dispensing much needed advice and support
to those most in need.
For the last 27 years, AMAR has been at the
forefront of efforts to support and enhance
the Iraqi health care system. AMAR have built,
refurbished and run more than 75 health care
centres and AMAR medical teams have
carried out 11 million consultations.
But we need your support.
Without our amazing supporters the AMAR Foundation could not
have achieved so much for more than a
quarter of a century.
Today, with COVID-19 being the very latest threat
to the lives of the Iraqi
people, we need your help more than ever.
