SARS-CoV-2 Crisis: Pandemics & medical workers

“Studies indicate a risk to physicians, patients and the general public from physicians working extended hours.”

“Working extended hours is associated with increased medical errors, attentional failures and fatigue-related adverse events resulting in fatality. Working extended hours was related to increased incidence rates of percutaneous needle sticks. Medical residents working a heavy call rotation (averaging 90 h of work per week) showed degraded attention, vigilance and simulated driving performance similar to those of persons with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.04 - 0.05 g/100 mL.”

Nurses & doctors died not because of infection but because of cardiac arrest or other ailments due to overwork & fatigue. (Chinese doctors fighting COVID19)
