As of June 1, 2022, the total number of coronavirus (COVID-19) cases in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) amounted to just under 800 thousand. At that time, the cumulative number of deaths due to COVID-19 exceeded nine thousand across the country.

Government responses

The Saudi Arabian government first introduced its travel ban in early February 2020, prior to the discovery of the country’s first COVID case on March 2, 2020. The government also took decisive measures to curb the spread of the coronavirus, such as postponing or canceling religious, entertainment, and sports mass gatherings. The suspension of Umrah pilgrimages and the temporary closure of Masjid al-Haram (the Grand Mosque) in Makkah, and Prophet’s Mosque in Madinah were later announced. The annual Hajj pilgrimage to Makkah, one of the largest religious gatherings in the world, attracting around 2.5 million pilgrimages during the week-long ritual before the COVID-19 outbreak, was also substantially pared back in 2020. In the government’s initiative to ease the restrictions imposed during the outbreak, Hajj in 2021 was resumed but limited to citizens and residents living in Saudi Arabia. Makkah was Saudi Arabia's top domestic tourist destination that year, surpassing 13 million visitors.

Tourism industry in the aftermath

The pandemic-induced travel bans and border closures, though crucial and effective in mitigating the transmission of coronavirus, left a heavy impact on the inbound tourism in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Lockdowns during Hajj and Umrah seasons also significantly affected the holy city of Makkah, where religious tourism played a key role. However, as up to one million pilgrims would be allowed restricted access to perform Hajj after two years of disruption, the hotel occupancy rates in Makkah were expected to increase during 2022, indicating the recovery of the country's tourism industry. On the other hand, the country has been seeking to expand its non-religious tourism industry, in line with the goals of diversifying the national economy outlined in the Saudi Vision 2030.

Saudi Arabia recorded 9646 Coronavirus Deaths since the epidemic began, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). In addition, Saudi Arabia reported 841469 Coronavirus Cases. This dataset includes a chart with historical data for Saudi Arabia Coronavirus Deaths.

As of November 5, 2020 the total number of death caused by coronavirus (COVID-19) in Saudi Arabia was over 5.4 thousand. The total number of coronavirus (COVID-19) cases to date in the country was around 349 thousand with over 336 thousand recovered.

In past 24 hours, Saudi Arabia, Asia had N/A new cases, N/A deaths and N/A recoveries.

As of Aril 2, 2020, the daily increase of coronavirus (COVID-19) cases in Saudi Arabia (KSA) was 165. As of March 25, 2020, Saudi Arabia ordered a lockdown on the capital Riyadh, Makkah and Madinah to control the spread of the coronavirus.

The 43.4 percent of the confirmed COVID-19 cases in Saudi Arabia until the second quarter of 2020 was among youths. The percentage of youth deaths out of total infected youths was 0.04 percent, as the virus poses lower risk potential to youths compared to other age groups. The youth population between the age of 15 to 34 was the highest in Saudi Arabia in 2020 among all age groups.

Project Tycho datasets contain case counts for reported disease conditions for countries around the world. The Project Tycho data curation team extracts these case counts from various reputable sources, typically from national or international health authorities, such as the US Centers for Disease Control or the World Health Organization. These original data sources include both open- and restricted-access sources. For restricted-access sources, the Project Tycho team has obtained permission for redistribution from data contributors. All datasets contain case count data that are identical to counts published in the original source and no counts have been modified in any way by the Project Tycho team, except for aggregation of individual case count data into daily counts when that was the best data available for a disease and location. The Project Tycho team has pre-processed datasets by adding new variables, such as standard disease and location identifiers, that improve data interpretability. We also formatted the data into a standard data format. All geographic locations at the country and admin1 level have been represented at the same geographic level as in the data source, provided an ISO code or codes could be identified, unless the data source specifies that the location is listed at an inaccurate geographical level. For more information about decisions made by the curation team, recommended data processing steps, and the data sources used, please see the README that is included in the dataset download ZIP file.

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has spread to over 150 countries worldwide. Since the first case of COVID-19 was confirmed in Saudi Arabia, cases have continued to escalate exponentially. The COVID-19 outbreak has had a negative effect on mental health and well-being. The study aimed to investigate the effects of the strict national regulations associated with the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health.Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of a convenience sample of Saudi residents. Saudi residents aged 18 years or older were invited to complete an online questionnaire after one month of a nationwide 24-h curfew between May 6, 2020 and May 13, 2020. We measured psychological distress using the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21). We ran binary logistic regression analyses to detect variables that significantly predicted DASS-21 scores.Results: A sample of 2252 participants was recruited from the general population of Saudi Arabia. The DASS-21 score means and standard deviations for depression and anxiety for the whole sample (10.73 ± 10.29 and 6.98 ± 8.30, respectively) were in the range of mild depression and anxiety. In contrast, the mean DASS-21 stress score was within the normal range (11.97 ± 10.80). The mean stress score for healthcare workers was within the normal range (13.70 ± 10.68) but was significantly higher than the mean score for the public (11.56 ± 10.89; P = 0.0006). Several variables (e.g., age, gender, and history of contact with confirmed COVID-19 cases) were significantly associated with higher DASS-21 scores.Conclusions: The COVID-19 pandemic has created a psychological burden. Therefore, there is an urgent need to implement emergency public health interventions that ameliorate the risk perception of COVID-19 through the dissemination of adequate and targeted health information that could be a successful measure to mitigate the psychological impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has become a major public health crisis worldwide, and the Eastern Mediterranean is one of the most affected areas.Materials and Methods: We use a data-driven approach to assess the characteristics, situation, prevalence, and current intervention actions of the COVID-19 pandemic. We establish a spatial model of the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic to project the trend and time distribution of the total confirmed cases and growth rate of daily confirmed cases based on the current intervention actions.Results: The results show that the number of daily confirmed cases, number of active cases, or growth rate of daily confirmed cases of COVID-19 are exhibiting a significant downward trend in Qatar, Egypt, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia under the current interventions, although the total number of confirmed cases and deaths is still increasing. However, it is predicted that the number of total confirmed cases and active cases in Iran and Iraq may continue to increase.Conclusion: The COVID-19 pandemic in Qatar, Egypt, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia will be largely contained if interventions are maintained or tightened. The future is not optimistic, and the intervention response must be further strengthened in Iran and Iraq. The aim of this study is to contribute to the prevention and control of the COVID-19 pandemic.

As of 2023, the number of hospitals in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia stood at ***. This was *** more than the previous year. Overall, the country has seen a consistent rise in the number of hospitals in the past decade; however, the prior two years were an anomaly with the number of hospitals dropping for the first time. Medical facilities and privatization of the hospital sector In Saudi Arabia, the Ministry of Health remains the main provider of preventive, curative, rehabilitative, and palliative healthcare services. The majority of hospital beds across Saudi Arabia are also owned by the Ministry of Health. While the Kingdom’s health law aims to ensure healthcare provision for all its population in a fair and accessible manner, the constant growth of the population placed a burden on the sustainability of free health services. The development of healthcare through privatization, in line with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, thus offers a solution to help the state maintain and improve the quality of the public healthcare system. Healthcare amid the COVID-19 pandemic The increasing number of coronavirus cases across the country has encouraged the Saudi Arabian government to further develop and optimize digital health technology platforms (DHTPs). Prior to the pandemic, as part of the Saudi Vision 2030 plan to promote the accessibility of healthcare, the Minister of Health already introduced Seha, which is a mobile application that allows patients access to remote medical consultations with specialists. May 2019 marked the launch of the e-health app Mawid Service, which facilitates online booking, canceling, and rescheduling of patient appointments at primary health care centers. Amid the pandemic, additional apps and features were also incorporated into the telehealth system, such as Tawakkalna, Ttabaud, and Tataman, which helped mitigate the spread of the coronavirus. In general, the digital transformation of Saudi Arabia’s health sector seemed to have successfully aid the fight against COVID-19, yielding positive public response to the national healthcare system.
