    About Book

    The COVID-19 pandemic is attacking society at the core. This virus is killing not only people but also spreading human suffering and overturning people's lives, and triggering a societal crisis. The outbreak is affecting all fragments of the population. It is not just the immediate impact; the farreaching consequences of social implications are becoming a cause of great concern. The reason is the impacts of the COVID-19 virus seem to be exhibited disproportionately by people that are poor, older, have disabilities, and have some chronic health conditions such as hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. Why is that so? Is it because poverty, housing, access to healthcare, and all social determinants of health, contributes to the spread of viral diseases and negatively impact individuals and families already struggling? Perhaps, it is time to evaluate how we can incorporate social determinants in the healthcare equation. To be able to do that necessitates us to stand on a single platform through a book. This book is an attempt at highlighting the major consequences of the pandemic on society. The objective is to bring together specialists from different disciplines to set up a platform for scholars to share their views, discuss relevant issues, and promote policy-oriented researches. All types of contributions are considered, ranging from real-life case studies to best practices, conceptual papers, empirical studies, literature reviews, and the like. We have included articles researching how the pandemic impacts and will impact the society in the short-, medium- and long-run, within or across countries, articles on psychological impacts, as well as articles examining the socioeconomic effect.
