  • 4 years ago
Angel Bipendu, 47, visits sick patients in Almè, Italy, one of the countries hardest-hit regions in the coronavirus pandemic as a traveling doctor and nun. Sister Angel -- whose native country of Democratic Republic of Congo suffered its own epidemic two years ago with the Ebola virus -- tries to remain optimistic in light of Italy's crisis, which has killed nearly 18,000 people, most in the northern region of Lombardy.
