- Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has been a catastrophic event that has exposed flaws in governmental and healthcare systems worldwide. This study examines the impact of the pandemic on international health regulations. To understand the effect on the global healthcare system, this paper focuses on issues such as income inequality, limited vaccine access, and social marginalization. According to the findings, income inequality has become a major barrier to countries’ access to vaccines, leading to unethical health policies that prioritize higher-income nations. The report also highlights the importance of technology, research and development, and public health infrastructure in delivering efficient healthcare services during pandemics. Ultimately, the study concludes that the COVID-19 crisis has shed light on fundamental flaws in global health policies, underscoring the need for equitable and ethical healthcare laws regardless of economic structures.
