Abstract
Few natural calamities surpass floods in their destructive capabilities. The recent floods in Pakistan were declared the world's deadliest since the South Asian floods of 2020 and were, by far, the most destructive floods in the country's history. They have resulted in significant loss of life and property and have served as the harbingers of cutaneous and noncutaneous diseases. These floods have dealt a critical blow to the country's already struggling healthcare system, which lacks resources for the prompt mobilization of medical personnel and resources to the flood-hit areas. Having lost their houses, the flood victims are wholly exposed to the elements. Lack of access to a clean water supply has predisposed them to a myriad of diseases. We believe that the consolidation of efforts by the national and international community will put an end to the plight of these flood victims. Our article highlights the significant diseases associated with floods, the challenges faced by the flood victims, and recommendations on how their situation can be improved.
