The key role of palliative care in response to the Covid-19 tsunami of suffering

Article indépendant

RADBRUCH, Lukas | KNAUL, Felicia Marie | DE LIMA, Liliana | DE JONCHEERE, Cornelis | BHADELIA, Afsan

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has brought a tsunami of suffering that is devastating even well resourced countries. The disease has wreaked havoc on health systems and generated immense losses for families, communities, and economies, in addition to the growing death toll. Patients, caregivers, health-care providers, and health systems can benefit from the extensive knowledge of the palliative care community and by taking heed of long-standing admonitions to improve access to essential medicines, particularly opioids for the relief of breathlessness and pain. [1er paragraphe]
