Abstract

Nowadays we face a devastating SARS Cov-2 pandemic. Even though the light in the end of the tunnel draws near with the arrival of the vaccines, related difficulties regarding its fabrication and logistics of distribution, as well as the appearance of viral variants, make the end of this pandemic still far away. So, being an IVF staff demands, more than anything, mental and physical strength, resilience and attention to our patients and their families. Our resilience is being tested, we resist. The COVID-19 pandemic forced a new way of working in face of the new challenges. All team must work in constant care, acting appropriately to avoid virus dissemination. At the same time we need to focus on the development of care and attitudes of psychological prevention not only for patients but also for all team members exposed to distress, tiredness and burnout.
