BBC World Service - BBC OS, Coronavirus: Conversation with paramedics around the world

Paramedics in the US, Ireland, Singapore, Australia and Chile share their experiences

We speak to paramedics working in different parts of the world, who share their stories and the difficulties of their job during the coronavirus pandemic. They have seen colleagues die or get sick from the disease, and are having to choose to stay away from their families for fear of infecting them.

We will also continue to answer your questions on the pandemic. 

If you would like to send us a message on WhatsApp, you can use this number: +447730 751925. Twitter: @BBCOS.
