Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic negatively affected countries around the world. Travel became restricted as countries around the world tried to control the pandemic. The global economy was also negatively affected. Nonetheless, many countries around the world took measures to control the economy and have successfully reduced the number of cases and the negative impact of COVID-19. This is not so with other countries such as Yemen, who is currently facing a humanitarian crisis that has greatly weakened their ability to respond to the pandemic.
The purpose of this research paper is to show how COVID-19 has negatively affected Yemen. For more than five years, Yemen has been facing a civil war that has resulted in one of the worst humanitarian crises in the world. The civil war has weakened Yemen's ability to respond to the pandemic, which could result in a much greater disaster if no effective measures are taken to end the civil war and control the pandemic.
