Facing Unsettling Questions
Eyewitness accounts from the frontlines of healthcare with Cristiano Ferrario, Assistant Professor of Oncology, McGill University, Federica Fromm, medical doctor, Enrico Grugnetti, registered nurse, moderated by Gerard Brungardt, Professor of Internal Medicine at the University of Kansas School of Medicine
For people working in healthcare during the pandemic it has been more difficult to move on from radical questions — Why do we have to suffer and die? What is the meaning of all of this? What can I rely on? — to less unsettling and divisive questions — Is Covid really dangerous? Are masks necessary? Should vaccination be mandatory? Listening to healthcare workers’ experiences and pondering the type of journey these questions provoke, might help us not to waste the sorrow we have suffered and the lessons we have learned.
