Beschreibung
On the Frontlines of Crisis by Jason Rodriquez is a powerful and deeply human account of the experiences of healthcare workers during one of the most harrowing periods in modern history—the COVID-19 pandemic. As hospitals around the globe became overwhelmed by the influx of critically ill patients, those working in intensive care units (ICUs) were thrust into an unprecedented battle against a new, deadly virus about which little was understood. Rodriquez takes readers into the heart of two Massachusetts ICUs to learn about the people who put their lives on the line and faced unimaginable challenges as they treated critically ill patients at the peak of the pandemic.
