A first-person account of some victims of the virus, the author puts faces and circumstances to the tragedy of the Covid-19 pandemic. Told from a chaplain's point of view, these narratives will take the reader beyond the numbers and ask questions like: What is the cost of keeping families separated at the end of life, and, if patient/family centered care is so central to healthcare these days, why was it immediately discarded? Is potentially saving human lives worth the risk of damaging them beyond repair?
这是一些病毒受害者的第一人称叙述，作者将新冠疫情悲剧中的面孔和情况呈现出来。这些叙述从牧师的角度讲述，将读者带离数字之外，并提出以下问题：在生命的尽头，将家庭分开的代价是什么，而且，如果以患者/家庭为中心的护理如今对医疗保健如此重要，为什么立即被抛弃？拯救人类生命的潜在风险是否值得将其破坏到无法修复的程度？
