Description
In 2008, the banks that had been bailed out with billions by the government were considered
“systemically relevant”, in the corona pandemic of 2020 it was members of poorly paid professions
such as healthcare workers. Reading Maximiliane Schaffrath‘s book on the situation
regarding healthcare and nursing staff, it seems almost miraculous that Germany had managed
to escape a corona disaster for so long. She gives a very personal and gripping account
of the stages in her own training – and the unsustainable conditions that are suffered not
only by the people who are supposed to care for and look after us, but also by everyone who
depends on them.
