It's a difficult time for #Namibia frontline workers. "As a clinician, it was a rapid learning curve." But we were making advances in fighting #Covid19, flattening the curve. Now, facing more infectious #DeltaVariant, the only way out is vaccines - Pulmonologist Willie Bruwer.
“We have lost people who were going to drive this country forward. Our only way out is a vaccine.” Look at #SouthAfrica. Accumulation of deaths, financial hardship, loss of faith in government leaders, who cannot prevent the deaths.
We’re all invested in functional society, functioning state, which helps poorest. A lot of strength is in #Namibia society. Young ministers, young doctors go to work every day, despite losing and mourning colleagues #COVID19: Infectious disease specialist Dr. Gordon Carl Cupido.
#Namibia psychiatrist Dr. K. Mwambene is seeing patients struggling with anxiety, including frontline physicians. Also cognitive effects of #COVID19 include mental health problems. Try to take care of yourselves; overcome stigma and consult mental health professional if you can.
