GENEVA: Countries in Europe and elsewhere should allow refugee health professionals to participate in the response to the novel coronavirus pandemic, the European Council and the United Nations said on Tuesday .
Many countries' health systems are under massive pressure as the worldwide death toll in the COVID-19 pandemic has surged past 120,000 out of nearly two million people infected, according to a tally compiled by AFP from official sources. But European Council Secretary General Marija Pejcinovic Buric stressed that countries could use a system created in 2017 to help states assess refugees' qualifications and facilitate their integration to speed up the process."Refugees, their host societies and their home countries all benefit from the European Qualifications Passport for Refugees," she said.
