A correspondence to an article published in this journal showed that anticipatory grieving and loss during the Corona Virus Disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic ultimately affects the lives of the family of the bereaved. Advocacy of the health care workers to the patient and their loved ones is necessary. This is where the role of health care workers appears to be important as they, in a sense, serve as a bridge to the dying patient and the grieving family.
一篇发表在本杂志上的文章的通讯指出，在 COVID-19 大流行期间，对逝者的预期悲痛和失落最终会影响到逝者家属的生活。医疗保健工作者向患者及其亲人提供宣传是必要的。这就是医疗保健工作者的角色显得很重要的地方，因为从某种意义上说，他们是将临终患者和悲痛欲绝的家庭联系起来的桥梁。
