Healthcare workers are at the forefront of the fight against COVID-19, but some are falling ill with the virus themselves before getting vaccinated. One local nurse is pleading with the public to help stop the spread. We are overwhelmed with patients, for one. We are overwhelmed with admissions, but we also have a lot of staff sick calls and as result, a lot of us are working extra hours, said Robyn Sarvis, a registered nurse at Kaiser Permanente San Diego Medical Center.
