The crisis highlights severe challenges in containing the virus, including community mistrust and inadequate support for medical personnel. The outbreak has overwhelmed the healthcare system, and the strike further hampers response efforts. The situation remains critical as authorities struggle to manage both the epidemic and the labor dispute.
