Workers at the Al-Sahul COVID-19 treatment center in Ibb governorate, Yemen, carry an oxygen cylinder to the intensive care unit.

Ansaf is a nurse aid working at the MSF-supported Sheikh Zayed COVID-19 center in Sana’a. She resumed working in the COVID-19 response after having been infected with COVID-19 herself. She went back to work “because of my determination and desire to tackle this pandemic . . . because I did not wish to see people in that same place and situation I was in and the same pain I experienced, I want to help people,” she said.
