Gaza's chronically ill face deadly risks from missed medication
Original: For Gaza’s chronically ill, every missed dose carries a risk
A report highlights how Gaza's chronically ill patients are being forced to skip doses of essential medication as the territory's health system collapses under the ongoing war. People with diabetes, heart disease, kidney conditions and cancer face life-threatening complications when treatment is interrupted, and doctors warn that missed doses are becoming a quiet, daily emergency alongside the visible casualties of the conflict.
Why now: The humanitarian situation in Gaza continues to draw global attention, with health impacts beyond the war's direct casualties now in focus.
