When Mariana Agiu reflected on her time as a hospital critical care nurse at the height of the pandemic’s first wave she had a startling realisation: almost everyone in the room was a woman.
“I understand the reasons why….most of us in this profession are women, from the cleaners, the healthcare systems, nurses, even [half] the doctors are female,” explains Ms Agiu to
The National. “It was always there, it’s just that we never thought about it.”
She described her experience on a Covid ward as “very draining”.
“Every day I would work hard thinking, I need to be there, I need to help. We are not enough. There are too many sick people,” she says.
