Srinagar: Women health workers are working hard to fight COVID-19 trouble in Jammu and Kashmir.

Dr Sadaqat Rehman,  who is also an assistant professor at the Institute of Health and Neuro-Sciences Kashmir, has dedicated herself to treating Covid-19 patients of Valley. Since the outbreak of Covid-19 last year, she has been continuously treating coronavirus-infected individuals non-stop, reports Deccan Herald.

“Since March 2020, the workplace has now become my home as most of the time, we don’t get time to go back home. I think this is more important than anything else,” she told the newspaper.

Shabeena Rehmat, a nurse posted at tertiary-care SKIMS hospital in Srinagar, told the newspaper over the last few months she and her other colleagues have been under constant exposure to Covid-19.

Rehmat said for her the hospital and patients have become their family.
