AbstractWhile modern healthcare and the pandemic have surely been taking a care on the economic and health concerning aspects of the world, a very underrated issue that has been on the rise lately is dealing with the constant stream of biomedical waste being churned out by the pharmacies, hospitals, clinics and patients alike. A light is to be shed on this issue and plausible ways to deal with it. The rapid review method was used in the study for quick analysis of articles and literature taken from a fixed time period to produce a quick review. Rapid review was chosen here as the main method because the field of covid-19 is ever evolving and quick, on-spot analysis is needed to keep with the latest research.
