With the coronavirus sweeping across countries, medical professionals have stepped up to risk their lives to save those diagnosed with the disease.
To ensure that doctors, nurses and other medical staff who are the forefront of the fight against the epidemic wouldn’t be victims, they have to wear the correct gear to protect themselves from this virus.
A video by SurgMedia reveals how medical staff would suit up in protective gear before attending to sick patients. The three-minute clip shows the healthcare professional in green scrubs sanitizing her hands before putting on bandages on her face. She then puts on her mask, goggles and gloves, before topping it with another protective white jumpsuit.
She then wears another mask and doubles down on safety with a face shield and additional protective blue clothing. The clip ends with her wearing a second pair of gloves before reporting for duty.
