AP PHOTOS: The doctors and nurses on the front lines of the coronavirus pandemic in Italy.
https://apnews.com/206a7a7a0264a17fdceff40c433a7613The doctors and nurses on the front lines of the coronavirus pandemic in Italy are almost unrecognizable behind their masks, scrubs, gloves and hairnets — the flimsy battle armor donned at the start of each shift as the only barrier to contagion.
Italy also surpassed China in total confirmed cases, and stands behind only the United States. But the National Institutes of Health also said there had been a slowing of infections in recent days, suggesting that a national lockdown was starting to show an effect after 2 1/2 weeks. Sometimes hospital workers don’t drink water or any liquids during their 8-, 10-, or 12-hour shifts so they don’t have to go to the bathroom and disrobe. They follow strict protocols while taking off their hazmat suits, gloves and masks, knowing that one wrong move could mean they, too, will catch the virus.
