Dr. Airin Aldiani, a Jakarta-based pulmonologist, never imagined her childhood dream of disaster relief medicine would lead to frontline COVID-19 battles. 🌡️ \"Every day feels like running a marathon with no finish line,\" she tells us, describing overwhelmed hospitals where medical staff \"wear bravery like armor\" to calm frightened patients.
💬 Her pandemic prescription? Better teamwork between officials and citizens. \"When governments create smart policies *and* people follow guidelines – that’s when we catch our breath,\" says Aldiani, who considers patient trust her greatest reward 🩺❤️.
The doctor’s viral plea comes as Indonesia faces new infection waves. Aldiani’s team juggles oxygen shortages and misinformation: \"Some still think COVID’s a hoax – until they’re gasping in our ER.\" 🏥 Her message to young audiences? \"Social distancing isn’t social disappearing – it’s how we protect each other.\"
