COVID 19 In Iran
Our motherland, Iran, is one of the most affected countries in the world by the novel coronavirus. With more than almost 245,000 cases and almost 12,000 deaths reported in July, health officials fear that the worst is still yet to come. What is even more alarming than the disease itself is that these numbers keep rising and authorities now fear a second wave of cases coming.
Our doctors and nurses are risking their lives without the proper protection or gear to treat the patients that come to the hospitals alone. As a result, many of these brave medical professionals are contracting the disease and have lost their lives in the battle against COVID-19. We have already lost countless doctors and nurses, including some courageous medical professionals in Razi Hospital in Gilan province. These fighters personally reached out to us for help to get them adequate protective gear against the virus.
