TORONTO There are some days where Dr. Emilia Noormahomed gets so anxious about contracting COVID-19 that she feels sick âlike I canât breathe,â she says. Itâs a fear and anxiety shared by many of her colleagues as the death toll of those they know climb each day. âWe are not only seeing health workers dying, physicians die, but also every day we hear about someone that we know who passed away of COVID - every day now. So, itâs really very painful, very sad,â Noormahomed, a microbiologist at the Universidade Eduardo Mondlane School of Medicine in Mozambique, told CTV News via video.
