The COVID-19 pandemic has been hard on everyone, especially for the healthcare workers who have been on the frontline in this fight. Health professionals have exposed themselves to the virus in order to save the lives of people. More than a thousand doctors have succumbed to the virus. Amid these unprecedented times, a section of society has not been kind to the doctors. News about adversity on medicos has been making headlines ever since the pandemic began. Stones have been pelted over them, families and mobs have thrashed medical staff and have vandalised hospital properties.
But even after such atrocities, medical professionals have been continuously working day and night to save as many lives as possible. Away from their families, it is difficult for them to handle the mental pressure, therefore, they are often seen relieving the stress of patients or cheering themselves up. Several dance videos of medical staff dancing and singing their heart out have surfaced online.
