Physical symptoms add to the psychosocial impact of disrupted access to health care (such as arrangements for obtaining regular medication), core personal routines (such as walking to local shops), social interactions (such as meeting friends), and lay and professional support networks.

STRENGTHEN INDIA'S DEBT MARKET TO STRENGTHEN NBFCs
