In terms of how my work has changed, these days there are several layers of additional precautions, on top of existing standard precautions, that we are taking. For someone previously on a rotational duty, now it is work all day, every day since the pandemic hit Nigeria.

I help in the fight against COVID-19 by first of all showing up at work every single day, regardless of the horrifying news of increasing cases of COVID-19 infections or the related deaths. How are you helping fight COVID-19 in your country? How has your work changed since COVID-19 broke out? I have no regrets or no fears, there is always satisfaction following every patient cared for. I want to be able to play my part in making good healthcare available for all.

I chose a career in healthcare because I have a passion for the promotive, preventive, curative and rehabilitative aspects of healthcare delivery, that meet international best practice and are cost effective. IвЂ™ve worked in the healthcare sector for 10 years now. How long have you been working as a healthcare worker? What made you choose a career in healthcare? Any fears or regrets? What affects me the most is seeing the rising numbers of COVID-19 infections and the suffering involved, imagining what people who have tested positive are going through daily. I am the manager and Chief Medical Officer for a site clinic for International SOS based in Cross River State, southern Nigeria. I am 37 years old and I live in Abuja, NigeriaвЂ™s capital city.
