Opinions | Covid-19 only exacerbated a longer pattern of health-care worker stress Agnes Arnold-Forster, Samuel Schotland © iStock The scale of the coronavirus crisis is taking its toll on health-care professionals.

Thankfully this has not gone unnoticed, with media coverage, individual doctors and nurses, and professional organizations now paying careful attention to the emotional fallout. Members of Congress have even introduced legislation to support health-care professionals’ mental health amid the pandemic.

Throughout the 20th century, politicians, policymakers and professional organizations in Britain, the United States and elsewhere have sought to understand and improve health-care workers’ emotional health and well-being.
