July 23, 2021: Dr. Moez Ben Othman, an emergency medicine physician. In the emergency department at Mongi Slim Hospital in La Marsa, a northern suburb of Tunis, the department head, Dr. Nour Nouira, and her team must navigate the daily challenges of a highly stressful COVID-19 crisis. All the rooms, lobbies, and hallways in the department have been repurposed for COVID-19 patients, while the team simultaneously manages routine emergency cases. The strain on the oxygen supply—which is being heavily taxed by the overload of patients—is the major problem, compounded by a shortage of staff as they grapple with the Delta variant.
