“…Literally, such kind of healthcare faux pas explicitly affected the mental health or life satisfaction of the people in the country, and implicitly declined the trust on healthcare service in the country [2, 3,4]. Therefore, many participants experienced unexpected mental distress in Bangladesh, which is similar to other studies [1,7,14,15]. The current study also found that the life satisfaction was dramatically dropped among Bangladeshi people.…”

“…In Bangladesh, the COVID-19 pandemic has dreadfully hit the healthcare industry [1]. The whole health care system is now broken down to control the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic patient management in the country [1,2]. In this situation, some profit oriented private hospitals are doing unethical healthcare practices, though few of them are punished by the country law [2, 3,4].…”

“…In the mid of the second quarter of the year, the news regarding the faux 2019-nCoV test certificates was broadcasted through visual media channels of the country [1,3]. This issue now not only remains inside of the country but also spread out internationally, for example news came out on Italian media, Japanese media and other international news media [2, 3,4,5].…”

“…Doing such unethical healthcare service during a social crisis badly affected the mental and physical health of the people in the country. Furthermore, individuals were also experiencing financial constraints due to much higher healthcare expenses [1,3,4]. Therefore, their life satisfaction has significantly declined [7].…”

Background and Aims: In Bangladesh, a significant number of individuals experienced a faux coronavirus test, especially at the profit oriented private hospitals or clinics during the COVID-19 emergency. Therefore, the prime purpose of the study was to investigate the impact of healthcare service faux pas on the mental health of Bangladeshi people during the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, the current study even explored the changes in life satisfaction of Bangladeshi individuals due to the faux SARS-CoV-2 tests in the country. Moreover, the study also dealt with the satisfaction of the people on the healthcare service during the COVID-19 emergency in Bangladesh. Study Design: The current research was conducted as a descriptive and bi-monthly cross-sectional study and used the snowball sampling technique to collect the survey data in Bangladesh. Place and Duration of Study: This study was employed in Dhaka division and Comilla division of Bangladesh between June and July in 2020. Methodology: In this study, we surveyed 393 Bangladeshi individuals from two divisions of the country. We measured mental & physical health (SF12), depression (PHQ2), anxiety (GAD2), distress (K6), life satisfaction and overall satisfaction on healthcare service. Survey data was analyzed on STATA platform to find the study findings. Results: This research found that Bangladeshi people experienced lower levels of mental and physical health conditions with the mean (STD) values of 23.1 (6.9) and 37.2 (9.1) respectively. Among the study participants, female individuals (60.05%) were mostly dissatisfied with the COVID-19 emergency healthcare service and dealt with more severe mental and physical disorders than male persons (39.95%) in the country. In this perspective, the study explored a dramatic increase in the mental stress and steady decline in life satisfaction of Bangladeshi individuals due to the false COVID-19 test certificates. Therefore, most of them had to go through multiple coronavirus tests to confirm the infected status. Additionally, participants visited at private hospitals for SARS-CoV-2 emergency support had higher levels of distress and dissatisfaction on the private healthcare services. Finally, the study found literally poor life satisfaction among all participants. Conclusion: The study found mental distress and life dissatisfaction caused by a private healthcare service faux pas in Bangladesh. So, this study suggests that a surge in the private healthcare service faux pas during or post coronavirus pandemic needs sustainable policy standards by the Government and nongovernment concerns. Fruitfully, the proper implementation of new policies especially for the private healthcare organizations is indeed essential to ensure a stress free healthy healthcare environment as well as higher life satisfaction for every individual in the country.

Amalgamating green energy and green technologies can ensure sustainable green supply chain management practices through boosting organizational performance and reducing carbon footprint around the world. The traditional supply chain system is one of the major sources for global emissions. To establish eco-friendly, cost-effective, and sustainable GSCM, this chapter proposes a renewable energy and low carbon technology-based green supply chain simulation design. Adopting GSCS will ensure maximum utilization of resources but significantly reduce lead-times and climate emissions. The GSCS defines the green techniques for executing RE plants without leverage risk. An exploratory approach has been applied to demonstrate green policies with realistic evidence, which will help to gain knowledge of successful implementation of GSC policies to intensify financial growth and green environmental safety. In addition, executable eco-friendly directions chronicled in this chapter would also be beneficial for the firms including SMEs, especially those in the embryonic stage of GSCM practices.
