Health-care professionals are vulnerable to high stress during this Covid-19 crisis. They are exposed to enormous pressure as well as danger: anxiety about their own safety in the absence of Personal Protective Equipment, lack of resources to treat patients, discouragement over inability to cope with patient demands, discouragement and grief over inability to save lives, anxiety about the wellbeing of their family members, as well as absence from them and so on. In this context, it is essential to take care of their own wellbeing.
