Health Care Providers Need Hiatus
Handling hoards of patient everyday
Each depressed ,fearing death
Asking same questions
Colleagues dying, patients dying
Death lurking in the corner
Not sure of own fate
A hectic schedule since more than a year
Physically tired, mentally exhausted
It is not easy still they continue to serve
Full time PPE, mask on
Handling patients with patience
Working selflessly, sincerely without hiatus
Think about them.
Their physical and emotional state.
Be empathic
Follow social distancing,
Wear mask, sanitize hands
Don't go out until required
If all take precautions covid will end!
Then happily we can take a hiatus
A much needed vacation!
