“We are not being heard” : a message from an infectious disease doctor who has worked an ICU throughout COVID

    Editor's note: Dr. Sircar is an infectious disease specialist who spent the last two decades studying and treating viruses internationally, including work with the Center for Disease Control fighting Ebola in Africa. She returned to the South Bay to be with family just before the pandemic arrived. She works at three area hospitals and a clinic. At one point during the pandemic, she had worked 155 days straight. She wrote this just before Thanksgiving.  WE
