COVID-19 SPECIAL, from the USA, the Covid-19 global epicentre, Dr Anna O'Kelly on how young doctors like her on the frontline are experiencing the enormous challenges of working in the hastily established "surge" ICU, at one of Boston's busiest hospitals,

With less than 2 years as a practicing doctor, Internal Medicine Physician Dr Anna O’Kelly talks candidly about the heart-breaking challenges faced by frontline doctors & nurses in ICU caring for Covid-19 patients, who need to be invasively ventilated, to hopefully breathe again. Working in one of Boston’s busiest hospitals in the USA - now the global epicentre of this highly infectious, dangerous virus - Dr O’Kelly talks of the distressing reality of patients dying without families by their sides, and with only the caring doctors and nurses to stand by them, and the difficult yet touching conversations they must have with families and loved ones. Resilient, warm, highly dedicated and ultimately positive, take a listen.
