Abstract
Bangladesh is located in the thalassemia-prone region geographically. Thalassemia patients need lifetime
interdisciplinary care for their well-being. In COVID-19, many patients—especially those from developing nations—
faced significant difficulties receiving treatment; including irregular transfusion frequency, iron chelation interruptions,
blood shortages, and unsafe blood. This study will explore the multifaceted challenges faced by thalassemia patients
in Bangladesh during the COVID-19 pandemic.
