The COVID-19 pandemic in Qatar was a part of the worldwide pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The virus was confirmed to have reached Qatar on 27 February 2020.[2]
As of the 12th of September 2022, a total of 3,904,273 people have been tested in the country.[3]
The reported number of deaths in Qatar has been low relative to the number of reported cases, which may be in part due to the country's adequate healthcare system and the fact that a high proportion of residents are young and healthy.[4] However, Qatar throughout the pandemic has used much strict protocols since the country hosted the 2022 FIFA World Cup.[5]

[edit]Qatar is highly dependent on migrant labourers; more than 90% of residents are not Qatari nationals. Numerous labourers live in overcrowded camps on the outskirts of Doha, which, according to the World Bank, are "fertile ground for transmission of CoVID-19".[4]

Response
[edit]The Qatari government worked to contain the virus by locking down the country and cutting off areas with migrant workers. Parks, mosques, shops, restaurants, and other establishments were closed. Starting in mid-May, face masks became mandatory in public places.[4]
A government official said that "anyone who tests positive for coronavirus immediately receives high-quality medical treatment at no cost."[4]

Controversies
[edit]Shaming of citizens
[edit]Qatar state television publicly identified and shamed 14 citizens who violated restrictions set to curb the spread of the coronavirus, adding that nine of the persons had been arrested by authorities. The 14 individuals were said to have violated a home quarantine pledge they undertook after returning from abroad, a presenter on Qatar state TV said. Home isolation was an option given to citizens who returned to Qatar after the nation reported a spike in COVID-19 cases.[96]
Treatment of migrant workers
[edit]The Guardian reported in early May on the poor economic status of migrant workers in Qatar. The article presented some interviews regarding their treatment, alleging that many of them have lost their jobs and have been forced to beg for food as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.[97] The deputy director of the Government Communications Office dismissed these allegations as "isolated incidents".[98]
In 2021, Qatar became the first country in the region to introduce a non-discriminatory minimum wage that applied to all workers, of all nationalities, in all sectors, including domestic workers. To ensure compliance, the Government of Qatar enhanced the detection of violations, enacted swifter penalties and strengthened the capacity of labour inspectors.[99]
In September, European Parliament member Marc Tarabella lauded Qatar for introducing safety measures and high-level standards of protection for all the workers.[100]
Effects on the 2022 FIFA World Cup
[edit]Qatar was the host country the 2022 FIFA World Cup. Due to the pandemic, FIFA and local organizers of the 2022 FIFA World Cup have stated that only fans from foreign countries had to be vaccinated to enter Qatar and attend matches.[101]
