Abstract

Abstract  in English, French

The effectiveness of healthcare systems during this COVID-19 pandemic will largely depend on their resilience in the face of untold challenges. Hence, we share the ongoing experience of the response of a primary care facility to challenges of the increasing number of undifferentiated patient load in the context of rising COVID-19 cases, infrastructural gap, limited personal protective equipment, and the health workforce in a densely populated town.

Keywords: COVID-19; Health system resilience; Outpatients; Pandemic; Primary care.
