Unsung heroes of Covid war

COMING face to face with an adversary for which there is no defence would strike fear in anyone.
But for nurses Eswary Sinnamuthu, Solehah Ismail, Mavis Thian and Muhammad Fikri, who are frontliners in the Covid-19 war, succumbing to phobia is not an option.
When the first cases were detected in Malaysia, Eswary and Solehah were quickly drafted for what was to become humanity’s toughest battle ever.
Eswary, a staff nurse at Gleneagles Hospital Kuala Lumpur, said her ward was the first to be converted into a facility to house patients under investigation.
