The project “COVID ZONE” shows portraits of hospital workers who work at the corona station of the University Hospital in Frankfurt. These people represent nurses & doctors around the world, who are risking their own health to help others in times of the pandemic.
The medical care professions are particularly affected by the Corona Pandemic. At the beginning there was a lot of applause within the society, but the cheering has long faded.
Many overtime hours and the danger of infecting themselves are part of their daily routine. To date, over 115,000 hospital workers have died from COVID-19 worldwide.
With my portraits, I wanted to bring a small part of these courageous people into the spotlight.
The pictures were taken in March 2021 at the University Hospital in Frankfurt.
