BMZ Papier 1
Gesundheit ist nicht nur Voraussetzung für ein selbstbestimmtes Leben, sondern auch essenziell für die gesellschaftliche und nachhaltige wirtschaftliche Entwicklung in unseren Partnerländern. Die gegenwärtige COVID-19 Pandemie zeigt, welche Gefahren von Infektionskrankheiten ausge...-hen. Der Erreger der Pandemie SARS-CoV-2 gibt auch einen Hinweis auf die Bedeutung zoono-tischer, also zwischen Tier und Mensch übertragbarer, Krankheiten. Es ist zu erwarten, dass diese Art von Erregern in der Zukunft noch häufiger auftreten wird. Eine wachsende Weltbevölkerung, Klimawandel, steigende Mobilität, Vordringen des Menschen in bisher unberührte Lebensräume, industrielle Landwirtschaft und Nutztierhaltung sind Faktoren, die das Risiko für das Entstehen bzw. für eine schnelle Ausbreitung von Krankheitserregern erhöhen

They found that about 64%, 87%, and 61% of the respondents in Bangladesh reported high levels of depression, anxiety, and stress, respectively and this varied between divisions (regions), more in women, those who self-quarantined, and those that experienced classical symptoms of COVID-19.
