An outbreak of Covid-19 in Yemen could be a "disaster" and "catastrophic" for the war-torn country, according to aid agencies.
Following years of violence, millions are displaced while the World Food Programme states that 15.9 million people wake up hungry every day.
Diseases including dengue, malaria and cholera are already causing massive problems in hospitals which are struggling to function.
The first reported case of coronavirus in Yemen came on 10 April, in the southern province of Hadramout. Speaking to RTE News from Sanaa, Médecins Sans Frontières' Head of Mission in Yemen said that fears are growing over what a coronavirus epidemic would mean for the country and the disaster it could cause.
