A nurse working on the frontline of Italy’s COVID-19 outbreak warned that exhausted healthcare workers can’t keep up as the death toll mounts.

“We’re working in a state of very high stress and tension,” said Daniela Confalonieri, a nurse in a hospital in Milan, near the contagion epicenter Lombardy, on Thursday.
