Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is not only a great matter of concern from a medical and health perspective, but it is a serious threat to the environment in terms of waste generated during the prevention and cure of COVID-19. The world has so far compromised more than 3 million human lives, and millions are being infected. Environmental threat is most serious because it can cause secondary complications. As per our knowledge, the amount of waste generated during the pandemic and its estimated quantity has not been assessed, thereby keeping the scientific community, Government authorities and public ignorant of its adverse effects. In this context, we have evaluated the waste generated by the Kingdom of Bahrain, estimated to be 35.480 kg/day (face masks), 1894 kg/day (PPEs) by the selected health facilities, 16,633.505 kg (vaccination-related) and 53,551.240 kg (related to tests conducted so far) in the Kingdom of Bahrain.
2019 年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）不仅是一个从医学和卫生角度来看非常令人关注的问题，而且就 COVID-19 的预防和治疗过程中产生的废物而言，它也是对环境的严重威胁。到目前为止，全世界已经有超过 300 万人失去生命，还有数百万人受到感染。环境威胁最为严重，因为它可能会导致继发性并发症。据我们所知，大流行期间产生的废物量及其估计数量尚未得到评估，这使得科学界、政府当局和公众对其不良影响一无所知。在这种情况下，我们评估了巴林王国产生的废物，据估计，巴林王国各选定卫生机构每天产生的废物量为 35480 公斤（口罩）、1894 公斤（个人防护设备）、16633.505 公斤（与疫苗接种相关）和 53551.240 公斤（与迄今为止进行的检测相关）。
