Resumo

Originating in China in November 2019, the wave of infection caused by the new coronavirus Sars-CoV-2 is sweeping across the planet through human contact and fast, global, mass travel. Health professionals on every level are fighting relentlessly against Covid-19, this deadly, invisible yet real enemy. The public, increasingly worried, expect them to protect it against the disease and death. Perceived by most people as a line of defence against the pandemic, health professionals are supported and treated as heroes. Some people howeverfear tthat they may be possible contamination agents.
