Yemen Is Facing the World's Worst Humanitarian Crisis, Then Coronavirus Came
The WHO estimates that at best, at least half of Yemen could be infected with the coronavirus and could become the worst manifestation of the virus because of the country’s depleted healthcare system. At least half of the hospitals there are not fully functional, with less than 1000 ventilators and ICU beds across the country, according to the WHO.
Yemen is also in the midst of the world’s humanitarian crisis. For nearly six years, it’s been locked in an intractable war that’s killed more than 100,000 people, pushed millions to the brink of starvation and caused the biggest cholera outbreak in history.

When people complaining about Quarantine in the western world don’t realize how grateful they are that they don’t have to experience a pandemic in a war torn nation
Many people in developed countries more like
@@mikaelaphillip8121 They have all the wealth to educate themselves. Denying it and ignoring what's happening because of your privilege is a choice and you can't say otherwise.
I would like to challenge your perception that we currently are *not* in a war torn nation.
@CheezusCrust what a stupid irrelevant comment. they talking about how the west complain over silly things and they dont know what its like in the war torn nations
THIS COMMENT RIGHT HERE
The fact that they don’t even show this on mainstream media
its literally disgusting
Cause mainstream media just wants to show you bullshit propaganda
yeah :(
They do though.
Yes they do
i hate that no one talks about this. this country has already completely normalized trauma
OVXX well I guess some people think BLM is more important
ITZ_ICY_GAMING but we are also losing many lives in America due to inequality by the system during so the BLM movement is still very important. But so is this situation.
@@jemimajean-charles76 Yeah but not as much these people. Besides Yemen has the worst humanitarian crisis. Again tell me if blacks in America are dying due to starvation? What a stupid comparison.
Moslty Steel @ITZ_ICY_GAMING no, what’s stupid is that we are STILL dealing with discrimination and racial bias, after it has ALREADY been proven that the bases in which discrimination and racism stand on were/are bullshit. You can’t be mad that people are angry that people are losing their lives, because of the color of their skin. It’s literally such a dumb thing to die for or to be judged by, especially sense there are problems like starvation and war crisis going on, that will require a greater effort to solve as well. Instead of thinking it’s so “stupid” that people are fighting for their lives to protect themselves from getting killed/taken advantage of over discrimination, how about you instead think how stupid it is that people still believe, kill, and live their life based on prejudices; be mad at THEM for making it a problem in the FIRST place🤨 *People who are fighting against racial injustice AREN’T the problem, it’s the people who are racist/prejudice that are.* I don’t know how you got that flip flopped around, but might I suggest that you review your morals.
Very say 😪
There is a child that dies every 10 minutes in Yemen. Where is the world's uproar about this?!
sorry, they are busy shaming trump for lgbt rights, too bad!
He wasn't born black so who cares.
@@WeAreAllWittness ok
Doc Holiday203 what? I’m pretty sure most people don’t know about what’s happening cause the media isn’t reporting it. Especially with USA, they don’t report other countries problems unless their citizen is there and more. Plus with Yemen’s situation, there so many things and people that don’t want their situation to get better..eg:Saudi Arabia
What's the role of world there? It's because of their religion

People need to wake up! The media has to talk about this, so that it can bring awarness!
Claudia Maigret what a sad way to look at things. Doesn’t awareness bring in more donations and donations more aid?
why is no one mad about this. america is selling saudi the weapons
America sells weapon s for everyone.
@@arisu7397 Turkey wanted to buy US weapons but the US wouldnt sell them. So they bought them off Russia instead...

Wow, these doctors really go to show the strength of mankind. I wish you all the best of luck. Godspeed
Much love and respect to the medical workers of Yemen. They are truly God's gifts, with everything they have to deal with.
My heart goes out to this nursing student and all the people of Yemen. I really wish those responsible for the war would drop dead today 😢
We need to spread more awareness about this. Yemen is going through really bad situations and we need to spread the word about it.
yemenis are always welcome across the sea in somaliland, May Allah help the people of yemen
May Allah forgive us for neglecting our brothers and sisters in Yemen and may Allah grant them patience
Allah can't do anything. Because if he could do anything then he won't wait that longer.
@@googleuser471 No Allah is capable of doing anything He is the one who creates and destroys its not as if Allah cant do anything He is the Supreme sometimes He tests a nation to see what mankind can do for example prophet Zakariah he was brutally killed and he was Allah's prophet does it mean that Allah couldn't do anything? NO but he was testing Prophet Zakariah. Our beloved prophet Muhammad he was beaten by the people of makkah until blood reached his toes due to the injury and Prophet Muhamad he is the most beloved to Allah in this universe .Allah says that if He loves a person He will test him/her and passing this test we earn His pleasure
It is our responsibility as muslims to help our fellow muslims in term of needs
@@shamsamuhamed9306 OK. Good luck then...
We don’t need patience we need help!
Where are the protests for this world ? Shocking stuff 😕
There will be a protest. Cant remember what day.
FACTS
I don't know, why don't you start one??!!!!! I can't donate but I can spread the word
Mikaela Phillip u can’t start the protests without the main media spreading the word widely. A few people on social media are not going to start protests u clown
Raees. Yes they can. If you spread this around, you would get a lot of people.
Pray for Yemen 😭 Love from Afghanistan

Lol
Yeah that won’t be happening any time soon
Lmao, people are too focused on the BLM lies, because apparently that’s more important than this. By the way, before you call me a racist against the blacks, I am black.
If you understand BLM then I can’t judge.. it has nothing to do with us.. another way to keep us divided..and it may not be happening anytime soon. I just pray we remember this life during our next so we can continue to change the world because it’s happening

It's a double edge sword.... First War. Now virus.
There actually fighting 2 pandemics and a war so yeah it's really bad
Nonchalant isn’t the cholera outbreak an endemic? Pandemic is where it affects people on a global scale
it implies that it can be used sometimes. this is just bad all around.
Owen Palmer it’s an epidemic
This isn't how you use the phrase. It is used often as a good/bad side Example: science is a double edged sword It could save us Or kill us
Finally someone reporting on this crisis !
Friends of mine here in Australia wrote this song and put together this video clip together....Warning Very Graphic kzhead.info/sun/rKeLma6gaGOZpaM/bejne.html
Spread the word about this anywhere you can, more people need to know about this because the media isn’t doing it’s job.
This is why I love Vice. How else would we know what's going on on the other side of the globe?
Trxll Ronin side? Of a globe? A ball? There are no sides
By reading credible news sources and not getting news from social media and television?
@Ultimate Parzival here we see the local politician "in the wild"
**oh my goodness..Prayers for Yemen 🙏😢
Prayers are one thing, how about demanding your government does not sell weapons to Saudi Arabia.....My friends recently wrote this song and put this video clip together...Warning it is confronting.....I urge you to watch and share the video....Again the video is very graphic, but sometimes it needs to be to bring home the reality of war..... kzhead.info/sun/rKeLma6gaGOZpaM/bejne.html

Firmino 9 not funny
Blockade... they are able to receive help if there wasn’t blockade.. and a Yemen is worlds worst humanitarian crisis is because of that blockade...
Thank god, i was born in a non-war zone country. So sad seeing this people figthing for their country
Where are you??
Good thing a good person like pewdiepie actually noticed this and helped the childrens in yemen... It's just a shame that his good deeds doesn't even get acknowledged while some mere mistake gets carved onto his name...
@kookieschocolate just because people have money doesn't mean they are entitled to donate everytime... The money they have is hard earned. You should be thankful that they are still donating money whenever they can..
These kinds of mindset are really painful to see
@@hyber361 No but there should be a moral resposiblity to donate some of your fortune to people who dont have it doesnt have to be millions just so over a lifetime that person has donated a good amount. It's like if you have enough water to never be thirsty for the rest of your life and enough to use for your own fun and amusement not giving a cup to someone who is dying of thirst is a shitty thing
kookieschocolate yeah put don’t push your morals on people and expect them to follow it to the T. That’s like one of the main rules of freedom of religion.

syria and the east of congo. weapon sales in and out of america creates this
this is so scary and sad and there's nothing I can do
There is much you can do, get the word out. Use your social media to spread the word of what is happening....Some friends of mine recently put this song together.... kzhead.info/sun/rKeLma6gaGOZpaM/bejne.html
you can donate ? :(
Kimmy 26 yes, except most people don't trust that as their money may go to the government instead. But you can still find a trusted place to donate. Just be careful
You can give out this information to your near ones and friends and let them know what’s happening around the world in other areas ....the rest is upto them Whether they act upon or choose to ignore

Thank you for bringing attention to this
I want to go help the doctors.
Happiness is not the goal. I'm sure many want to. It's very dangerous though, you could get stopped on the road by a terrorist. But you can do it. You can help, you don't have to be there..be creative.
Going to Yemen to help them is probably the worst idea to help. You can't help longer that way. You can get killed or bombed at any moment. Try to find some other ways to help them. Remember that you have to stay alive in order to help them for longer period.
Prayers for Yemen 🙏🙏& thank you to front line workers ! ❤️
i’m sorry for these people. respect to the doctors
2020 just sucks for everyone all around.
I haven't seen this on the news at all. I'm glad tiktok is a thing because I'm now aware of this and can spread it more. It's sickening how they don't show this stuff but they'll show anything to do with popular and rich people.

"They can't afford to stay home." We have what you can call American Privilege if you live in the United States of America. I don't want to hear otherwise!
Many people in the united states can't afford to stay home either, luckily there are safety nets otherwise the States would have a huge hunger problem.
It’s amazing to see medical students and frontline workers doing their part in Yemen. It’s difficult and they’ve put themselves out there to do it. It’s hard to accept the reality of Yemen because it’s just so hard to see.
Yes is. But movement is happening. Help Yemen 2020 on the book with a face lol excellent and informative for all that want to be part of life changing events in Yemen.

I did an expedition and found lots of oil in Yemen, then i told both Saudi Arabia and Iran and now they are battling for it.
ksa doeesnt want anything, they are helping the yemni population, I'm yemni and ill tell u this, ksa pumped 20 billion into yemeni economy and has sent a lot of aid, they only got militarily into this conflict after the houtis launched rockets at riyadh, houthis keep bombing civilians and wiped my teacher village off the map, so please stop spreading lies

I can only pray for them. But I will do share the video so that some help can reach them if possible. Their suffering is beyond our thoughts. It would help if people share this video so people become more aware of the situation. Thank you VICE for sharing this!!.

the world failed this country🕯️
They failed them selfs
The problem is that there is many factions in the war. Every faction is supported by a strong country, and corrupted commanders and leaders dont want to end the war fast because they are benefiting from it, and after all this things there is the African migrants who came to Yemen by thousands just to cross to Saudi Arabia, which made another crisis. However things in South Yemen (out of Houthi control) are getting much better.
The closer vice gets to you, the more trouble you’re in ربي يستر اليمن و من فيها و يغطي الجيران و الاحباب فل عالم كله 🌍 ☮️

Please everyone spread awareness about our brothers and sisters in need when I see things like this I feel really depressed and start to be more grateful for the little things we take for granted . Also Muslims and Islam had been protrayed so badly and we need justice for our brothers and sister #muslimlivesmatter ♥️
Is there any way we can donate or support Ramah??
Maybe but Saudi Arabia is blocking almost all relief aid to increase the starvation and death so it may not reach them.
Does the temperature reader work that far ?
