Working in a Covid hospital: how common is it? Should I make it a focal point of application?

[opheliamg]

I know lots of people will be talking about covid in their essays, goes without saying. And that lots of people will be contributing to the pandemic response remotely. However I work as an orderly/patient transporter in a covid hospital, constantly in close contact with covid patients (took job after pandemic started). Will this stick out, or are tons of premeds working in covid hospitals right now? Hard to gauge as I could not find threads on this specifically.

Put it in the work & activities section. Use it as the basis for one essay, either the PS or one secondary essay per school. Do not use it more than that. Do not make it a focal point. Don't be a one trick pony.
