Countries are doing the right thing by isolating, social
distancing or perhaps by quarantining as a result of the ongoing pandemic.
Nevertheless, frontlines workers, including other
professions aren’t having the luxury at the moment. Health care workers are on
the frontlines, putting all they can to take care of us all.
Health workers, including custodial staff, EMTs,
technicians, nurses, and doctors are, on the other hand, sharing what it’s like
to be on the front lines during this ongoing pandemic.
So, here are some of their heartbreaking photos!
