One year to the day after the terrible explosion in the port of Beirut, Lebanon continues to sink into a crisis whose end we do not see.

With political blockages came shortages, the collapse of the Lebanese pound, and the flight of many Lebanese from their country.

This slow but sure decline, the health sector has not escaped.

Publicity
