US EditionMuch of the Healthcare System in Gaza Has Effectively Collapsed, Emergency Physician Says
- In May 2025, at Gaza’s Nasser Medical Complex, Dr. Victoria Rose carried out a major surgical procedure on an 18-year-old who suffered a serious blast injury to his right arm amid the ongoing hostilities.
- The surgery occurred during a surge of casualties caused by relentless Israeli bombing and an 11-week blockade that led to severe shortages and malnutrition in Gaza.
- The hospital faces over 100% bed occupancy, with 47% of essential drugs and 65% of consumable items out of stock, worsening treatment difficulties amid depleted staff and active nearby fighting.
- Rose explained that widespread infection of wounds is a clear indicator of malnutrition and emphasized that if the bombardment ceased even briefly, it would allow medical staff to manage and reduce the overwhelming number of patients awaiting treatment.
- Rose described the situation as the worst she has ever seen, with increased patient volume threatening hospital function and a looming famine amid insufficient humanitarian aid.
