Why can't people in northern Syria access necessary medications?
Most people in northern Syria cannot access essential medications due to extreme poverty. As stated by a Syrian camp resident, the population is 'extremely poor' and unable to afford medications from private pharmacies. This situation has been exacerbated by war and recent funding cuts. With over 7 million displaced people and USAID suspending operations, more than a dozen medical facilities face closure. These clinics, which previously provided affordable or free healthcare to vulnerable populations, are now receiving diminished aid, leaving millions without access to basic healthcare services.
