South Africa's health workers bearing the impacts of Covid-19

Gabriella Good Health and Well-being

This article by The Conversation highlights how healthcare workers in South Africa are lacking certain necessities when dealing with Covid-19. South Africa is a country that has had one of the longest lockdowns in the world; staff working in the health sector have had to grapple with the pandemic but have felt a lack of psychological support or assistance from the government.

As writer Stephen Harris claims, the "extraordinary practical and psychological challenges of working daily – and over many months – with the threat of infection" must create quite an intense struggle for health workers not only in South Africa, but across the globe.
