A number of Afghan citizens complained about the lack of health facilities, insufficient medical centers, and the absence of specialist doctors in some provinces of the country.
They urged the interim government to pay serious attention to health care across the country.
"Our health centers should be expanded, and health services, especially in villages and remote areas, should be increased so that people do not have to come to the center for treatment," said Sayed Wais, a resident of Khost.
"We have to go to the health center in the district to treat our children," said Islamuddin, a resident of Kunar.
Meanwhile, the World Health Organization (WHO) reported that it has managed to provide medical services to 737,000 people in 130 health centers in hard-to-reach areas of 15 provinces of the country.
Jamshed Tanoli, acting WHO Representative to Afghanistan, said: “The collaborative efforts of WHO and its partners, supported by QFFD, have significantly improved health service delivery in Afghanistan’s underserved areas.”
"The interim government of Afghanistan still does not have an organized system for providing health services. The assistance of the World Health Organization is undoubtedly useful, and I hope this assistance continues," said Sayed Abdullah Ahmadi, a doctor.
The WHO report also said that the organization's main focus is on increasing access to essential and life-saving medicines and strengthening the capacity of health professionals to provide quality care in vulnerable communities.
"The role of the World Health Organization is extremely important, especially in the financial support of third-world countries," said Munir Ahmad Kamal, a doctor.
The Ministry of Public Health also announced that after the Islamic Emirate returned to power, attention has been given to underserved areas and 350 health centers have been established in various parts of the country.
Sharafat Zaman Amarkhel, spokesperson for the Ministry of Public Health, said: "In the past two years, 350 centers have been built. Most districts under the previous government had no health services, and 50% of the people did not have access to health services."
The Ministry of Public Health had previously announced that it aims to establish 288 health centers in various parts of the country this year.
