Lebanese emergency doctor Nour al-Jalbout has worked in Beirut for nearly two years.

Sadly, she has decided to quit because Lebanon is too dangerous.

Nour was at work during a terrible chemical explosion in Beirut in August.

Nour's home was damaged in the explosion.

She's tired of being brave.

It isn't easy to live in Lebanon.

The pandemic makes life difficult.

And lots of Lebanese people don't trust their government.

People are also worried about the country's economy.

Doctor's pay is going down.

And hospitals can't get necessary drugs because they can't afford them.

Lebanon used to be a great country for a career in medicine.

But now, hundreds of doctors have decided to leave.

Nour would love to stay in Lebanon.

But she feels it is unhealthy for her.
