This appreciation changed according to Cramer, however, is solid: “We have become the lepers from the point of view of the population and the press in the last few weeks of the heroes of the early year,” he writes further. Added to this is the self-isolation, which was mentally stressful. Many of the hospital staff were no longer in their leisure time socially active, and made, out of consideration for the patient, not on vacation. Cramer calls: “We, as care staff now need the support of the population, for the benefit of our patients.”
