However, COVID-19 is likely to have a notable impact on healthcare operations in countries. The pandemic had a significant impact on a wide range of health outcomes. Disordering of elective health services related to cervical screening, management of abnormal screening test results, and treatment of pre-cancers lead to increased cervical cancer incidence and inflame existing health disproportions. Since the beginning of 2020, the pandemic has caused enormous health, social and economic impacts, likely to continue in 2021. Even after some of these impacts have been mitigated or contained, there will be medium and longer-term consequences. Diagnostics services have been disrupted in many countries, and supply chains for key commodities have been stretched.
