   "The Iraqi healthcare system was one of the most advanced of its kind in the 1970s and '80s," says William Aaronson, associate professor of healthcare management at Temple's Fox School of Business and Management."But the current war, coupled with the 1990 U.N.-imposed sanctions, the 1991 Gulf War, and subsequent period of lawlessness and looting, have left the healthcare system in a total shambles.It has been set back almost 50 years."The mass exodus of healthcare professionals, limited access to medical information, and a declining standard of living have not helped matters, either, he says.Aaronson, who worked with USAID/AIHA to develop community-based primary healthcare in the Ukraine after the Soviet Union fell, believes, in addition to humanitarian donations of medical equipment, the real solution will be the development of a community-based primary healthcare system by the Ministry of Health.
