COVID Chronicles: Stories of Resiliency from Essential workers Public Health Out Loud

    • Life Sciences

A medical assistant who had to rely on the support of their older kids. A family physician based in the South who spoke out very publicly in support of teachers at a tumultuous time. A school nurse who had to tackle new challenges at work and at home. 
These are the stories of frontline workers who got up every morning to provide essential services despite whatever was going on in the world— a pandemic in this case.
While COVID-19 is the disease that tied these stories together, resilience and hope are the recurring themes that emerge when chronicling their setbacks and triumphs. 
In this episode, Dr. Therese Zink shares some of the stories she heard from essential workers since the start of the pandemic. The author of COVID Chronicles: How Essential Workers Cope, Dr. Zink also shares insights on what it was like to leave the West Bank just when international airports started closing their terminals.
