Doctors Warn: Cramped Housing in Dubai Causing Health Crisis | GCC News 24

Post by : Mariam Al-Faris

Doctors in Dubai are raising urgent concerns over the rise in cramped shared accommodations across the city.

Medical experts warn that overcrowded living conditions are fueling a surge in respiratory infections, mental health issues, and overall poor public health outcomes. With poor ventilation, close contact, and limited personal space, residents are at increased risk of diseases like colds, flu, and stress-related disorders.

Beyond physical illness, many are experiencing anxiety, depression, and emotional exhaustion — a growing issue in Dubai’s fast-paced urban environment.

Health professionals are calling on UAE authorities to improve housing standards and protect the well-being of low-income and shared-space residents.
