Now a freshly-minted resident doctor, practicing obstetrics and gynecology in Atlanta hospitals, she assists young pregnant women in navigating the new realities of Covid-19. She shares with us reflections on the risks and fears of health providers, the racial and class divisions she sees every day, the dangers of prematurely lifting the shelter-in-place policies, and the acts of generosity from the community that bring her to tears.
