Transit suspensions cutting off critical healthcare access
Public transport shutdowns during crises disproportionately endanger regional patients who rely on daily or weekly specialized treatments (like dialysis) only available in Yerevan, highlighting a gap in emergency medical transit planning.
-
Market access bottlenecks for perishable regional crops
Sudden closures of wholesale markets without alternative regional distribution networks lead to rapid crop spoilage, turning a logistics issue into an immediate livelihood crisis for specialized local growers.
