A day with josi: A photoetnography of care and fatigue

Abstract

This photographic essay was based on the research “Microcephaly, disability and care: an anthropological study on the impacts of congenital syndrome of the Zika virus in the state of Pernambuco”. The visual narrative seeks to reflect about the health of women, mothers of babies with congenital syndrome-an unfolding of the Zika virus-, considering the intense, solitary and exhaustive routine of these women.
