Graffiti honoring medics fighting the pandemic at Piraeus hospital

An impressive graffiti commemorating health workers who tirelessly fight to save lives in Greek hospitals adorns the wall of the Tsanio Public Hospital in Piraeus.

The graffiti depicts the daily struggle between doctors and nurses in hospitals over the past two years.

It depicts the face of a masked medical professional holding a white rose.

“The mural is an attempt to express the public’s gratitude to the country’s health workers,” the Zanio hospital said in a press release.

Graffiti is an initiative of the head of the Tsanio hospital.

Unfortunately, not a single media outlet mentions the artist’s name.

There is a similar mural at the AHEPA hospital in Thessaloniki, northern Greece.
