Abstract

In December 2019, a new coronavirus outbreak was recorded in Wuhan, China. This has expanded across the world to date, posing a host of major obstacles for healthcare professionals. They have been on the front lines of the epidemic reaction, and as a result, they are vulnerable to a variety of risks, including a significant risk of complications. Long and erratic duty periods in a highly restricted setting will lead to elevated anxiety levels and, eventually, burnout. HCWs can experience fear, hyperarousal, sleep disruption, unwanted recollections and memories, distress, and sadness as a result of seeing physical pain and mortality of patients with an immediate threat to one's protection. They will experience several external stress factors in the coming weeks and months. It is critical that concerted attempts are taken to reduce the pandemic's effects. To plan for a pandemic or some other public health crisis, psychological assistance, encouragement, and coordination are necessary. Pandemic readiness is a scarce financial and technological capability in developing countries. They still encounter several special and complex challenges, making pandemic preparedness much more challenging. This article discusses the problems posed by HCWs in developed countries during pandemics such as Covid-19, and also the steps required to protect workplace protection and psychological fellow human.
