Economic Resistance in the Iranian Health System: A Narrative Review Study

Abstract

Economic resistance means strengthening the economy to accelerate economic growth and GDP when the country is under the illegal and oppressive sanctions of hostile regimes. The health system is one of the important parts of production cycles in our country, relying on the capability and skills of experts in this field. Under the influence of sanctions, health system has also received a severe pressure and difficulty in supplying some basic health-related items and financing. However, properly allocating resources and applying the Supreme Leader's guidelines on the economic resistance can help solve these problems. Also, using the health system's production potentials in health tourism, etc., can promote this system as an important part of the country's production system. In addition, current situation and the coronavirus outbreak shed light on the importance of the health system worldwide. During the epidemic, the lack of resources and workforce in the health system can be solved based on the economic resistance guidelines.
