Marguerite Bouvard examines the complex relations between many of the social, political, economic and medical challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic. She discusses the lives of doctors struggling with the increased work load, while staying current on the rapidly evolving science and management of the Covid-19 infection and simultaneously caring for their families. As a doctor who has been constantly adjusting to the rapidly changing demands on our professional and personal lives during the Pandemic of 2020-2021, this book reveals the many challenges we have all faced as a result of this virus.
