Pandemically, the Maldives
As a set of idyllic and geographically secluded islands strewn across the Indian Ocean, Maldives may have had a singularly unique pandemic experience compared to other world nations, with some similar difficulties accompanied by an altogether different set of obstacles. One year since the pandemic washed ashore at home, the nation faces a near-overwhelming third wave of the Covid-19 pandemic with over MVR 3 billion from the state s budget pumped into pandemic response efforts thus far. This is a significant dent for a country with an approximate population of 530,000, but by all means, a necessary allocation of critical funds.
