Allow me to repeat that to myself to be sure I got it right:

Health care workers represent more than 20% of all #COVID19 cases.

The dedication of these people in the face of danger is astounding.

Hoping to find ways we can reach out and express our gratitude to these exceptional Americans, especially in the hardest hit areas such as New York, LA and New Orleans.

KY..........
