Dr. James Samuel Pope inspects a medical scan of a patient in the ICU at Hartford Hospital in Hartford, Connecticut on January 18, 2022HARTFORD, Connecticut - Exhausted and overwhelmed by the influx of mostly unvaccinated COVID patients, Dr James Samuel Pope, an intensive care physician at Hartford Hospital in the US state of Connecticut, hopes the Omicron wave of the pandemic will be the last.

"All of us are burned out," Pope tells AFP, especially health care workers who have been taking care of coronavirus patients since the beginning of the pandemic. Another medical worker approaches Pope, asking him to sign a patient's death certificate. There is an empty bed visible in the ward, where a COVID-19 patient died during the night.

"We had a number of young people who died that we tried very hard to save, we just couldn't," he says.
