How women were most affected by Covid?

 Drastic Changes during the Pandemic time created a lot of chaos and confusion in society. All around the world, the majority of women were affected and then they were occupied with innumerable household work along with their job.

Incessantly, They were managing everything. But some of the women who lost their jobs due to the Pandemic faced the worst situation.

In the private sector, data says half of the working women have left their jobs or been fired from the company. Even then, some of the women with great enthusiasm started their initiative such as Startups. 

Just because of the number of rumors around the world related to inoculation and its side effects, most women hesitate to take it. The worst scenarios are countenanced by the housewives who don’t have any job or source of income, as we saw that the crime rate against women spontaneously surged during the Pandemic. 

Some of the data that represents women's vulnerability during the Pandemic:-

  • According to the Data Afghanistan, Angola, Congo and Zimbabwe were the countries where women were the most affected by the Pandemic. 
  • In Bangladesh, the primary health effect of the Pandemic on women is less of a concern but has moderately high maternal mortality rates. There are 10 to 12 other countries with very poor scores on women’s health, majorly the low-income countries. 

Thus, To keep them safe and secure, the government must ensure the regular tracking and monitoring of the situation of women and girls in the most vulnerable countries.
