“In a country already devastated by the twin crises of war and COVID-19, the desperate lack of dollars in the market is leaving importers unable to pay for their shipments. Food is becoming scarce and grocery stores are unable to fully restock. As prices rise, people are rushing to withdraw and spend their savings before the banking sector collapses. Private businesses are not able to fund operations, shutting down and laying off the privileged few who still have jobs. A growing number of Afghans are suffering from hunger, poverty, and a lack of access to basic goods and services. In short, the country is in a total humanitarian crisis.”

“When you say that a disease [has] transitioned from epidemic to endemic, there are no hard and fast rules to determine that. Once COVID-19 loses that ability through enough immunity … I think the world is going to get to endemicity, but it's going to be on different timelines depending upon where you are at. I think that from the very first day in the COVID-19 pandemic, it was always going to be the case that this became an endemic respiratory virus. The main priority was to get more tools, like vaccines, antivirals, and monoclonal antibodies, that would help to reduce the strain on hospitals and health systems. Omicron has accelerated this process … we are basically at the cusp of endemicity and it may be the case that after Omicron surge washes over the countries of the world, we will be clearly in the endemic phase.”
