  • Homeless people in the United Kingdom facing the risk of death from Coronavirus as they're the most vulnerable in regards to protection against Covid-19. Many homeless men and women are seen in central London, the British capital throughout the week, while the government is increasing pressures on its residents to self-isolate. Last years alone, 320,000 people were recorded as homeless in Britain, analysis from housing charity Shelter suggests. It is a rise of 13,000, or 4%, on last year's figures and equivalent to 36 new people becoming homeless every day.<br />

For most people, the new coronavirus causes only mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever and cough. For some, especially older adults and people with existing health problems, it can cause more severe illness, including pneumonia. (Photo/Vudi Xhymshiti)

  • Three hundred rooms have been made available in two hotels for the next 12 weeks, the London mayor's office said in a statement last week, but homeless people are seen on Wednesday, March 25, 2020, nearby Trafalgar Square in Westminster. They are at particular risk of contracting the coronavirus with the systems that care for them poorly equipped to handle a major outbreak. Vigilant hygiene can prevent transmission, health experts say, but that is likely to be a challenge for people living without homes. An estimated 320,000 people are homeless in the UK, according to the latest research by charity "Shelter". This equates to one in every 201 Brits and was an increase of four per cent on the previous year's number.<br />

  • Kosovo health employees started hunger-strike on Tuesday, Mar 2, 2009, after the government failed to increase their salaries as promised in October 2008. Some 13,247 medical workers in Kosovo restarted their strike on Tuesday for the 3rd time, saying they would continue until their demand for better pay is met. <br />
<br />
Kosovo yet has no law on health insurance and even medical workers have no coverage for medical interventions.<br />
Kosovo, which declared independence from Serbia one year ago, is plagued by poverty and corruption, also affecting the decrepit health sector. The average Kosovo monthly wage is 220 Euros and doctors are paid only slightly better, 250 Euros, meanwhile they use to work in horrible conditions in state-run hospitals. As a result, many of them only keep their jobs in state hospitals in order to direct as many patients as possible to see them in the hundreds of better-equipped private clinics.<br />
The health system in Kosovo is poor with many patients looking for treatment abroad. Health trade unions have been warning for a long time about critical conditions in the health system, but no adequate policies have been applied so far to improve the situation. (Photo/ Vudi Xhymshiti)

  • People some of them wearing a face-covering mask walks across central London on Wednesday, Nov 11, 2020. <br />
In times when a pandemic unleashes death and poverty, the concept of what is essential to keep society functioning in a lockdown is gripping Europe.<br />
Services of remembrance on "Armistice Day" are held in many nations on Wednesday will commemorate the 102nd anniversary of the armistice ending World War I and honouring all those who died in the war. (VXP/ Vudi Xhymshiti)
