In Afghanistan, women were effectively blocked from accessing medical care.
The Taliban prohibited male doctors from examining female patients and even providing them with emergency care without a nurse or guardian. At the same time, women are prohibited from studying medicine in 2024, and hospitals are prohibited from hiring new employees.
