Economics[edit]
In September 2022, government officials estimated at least $30 billion of reconstruction costs and economic damage, equivalent to about 10% of GDP. The UNDP, World Bank, and Asian Development Bank expected to complete an assessment of flood damage and reconstruction costs by October 2022.

Health[edit]
Aid workers warned that lack of clean drinking water caused an increase in waterborne diseases, namely diarrhea, cholera, dengue, and malaria. Skin infections caused by wet conditions have also been widely reported. Furthermore, some provinces such as Sindh and Balochistan have seen an increase in Severe Acute Malnutrition, while in other areas, health campaigns to combat tuberculosis and HIV have been brought to a halt, worsening the pre-existing health crisis in the country.
