Read the transcript
As we mark the two-year anniversary of the declaration of the COVID-19 pandemic on March 11, we're reaching out to aid workers who have been through the dramatic twists and turns of this disease. Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is excited to partner with The Nocturnists to bring you a special evening of live storytelling and reflection by healthcare workers from across the Americas sharing their personal experiences responding to COVID-19.
Join us in paying tribute to the moments of grief and joy, isolation and connection, anxiety and hope—and everything muddled in between. What was it like to face the morphing threat of a new infectious disease? How did we learn to take better care of each other, and ourselves? How are we feeling now?
We invite you to share this event with your family, friends, and colleagues—anyone who has been part of your support network during this unprecedented time.
Speakers:
Dr. Michael Jaung is an Emergency Medicine Physician working with MSF since 2019. He has completed 7 assignments with MSF in 6 different contexts, including Sierra Leone, Brazil, Lebanon, Peru, Malawi and Palestine. His most recent assignment in Palestine was as an ICU doctor in a COVID Intervention project.
Dr. Mariana Gutierrez has worked as a pediatrician for MSF since 2019 in places such as Lebanon, DRC, and Afghanistan. Dr. Gutierrez will share a story from her time working in a pediatric ward in Iraq early on in the COVID-19 pandemic.
Tatiana Chiarella is a nurse from São Paulo, Brazil. Since joining MSF in 2014, she has completed numerous assignments in various roles. Before the onset of the COVID-19, she worked in Iraq, Haiti, Libya, Syria, Yemen, Malawi, and South Sudan. She then responded to the pandemic at home in Brazil before her most recent assignment in the Gaza Strip.
Moderator:
The event is hosted by Dr. Emily Silverman, creator of The Nocturnists, an acclaimed medical storytelling live show and podcast where healthcare workers share personal stories of joy, sorrow, and self-discovery. In March of 2020, The Nocturnists launched Stories from a Pandemic, a documentary podcast series featuring audio diaries submitted by hundreds of frontline workers across North America.
