Ruslan Mellin is an oral surgeon who joined the infectious diseases unit at the Perinatal Clinic in Central Russia. He secretly drew doctors and patients in the COVID frontline. His works show the everyday life of his colleagues and patients through the lenses of protective glasses. Queues from the ambulances to the emergency department, patients in intensive care, the disabled, who were brought from boarding houses. Selflessness and mutual assistance of doctors, death, which every day takes away people and already «sniffs» at you; and the eyes of colleagues - only they were visible when everyone worked in special suits.
