I believe the most urgent issue is the state of healthcare. The reason I believe this is usually in wars the healthcare can be crazily affected, often more people die of serious wounds and untreated infections. In this war, there are not enough doctors to access basic services. There is a rough estimate of 44 doctors per 10000 people. This means it is hard to do everyday things like getting vaccinated or having checkups. This is even more dangerous when people have serious injuries. One other reason I believe that the most urgent issue is healthcare is most of the doctors in Ukraine and Russia are helping the army because of the wounds at battle can be more serious than most other wounds and infections. Quite often doctors in training have to help with the hospitals even though they haven’t studied everything yet while the professional doctors are helping with the war efforts. Aswell as that thousands of hospitals have been blown up and destroyed. My final reason is the shortage of medical supplies, most medical supplies are being sent to the army rather than the normal civilians. This supports my theory that the most urgent issue in the Russia Ukraine war is the state of healthcare.
