A young friend of ours is an epidemiologist doctor. We have 4 of them in our county. When the story of no masks reached us, I told my wife that we should not really worry. If needed we could ask her for a couple of masks.
Today she called me. She asked whether we had a mask for her. She is working with people, who are sick, and she said she no longer had a mask.
I asked our construction workers, and all they had was one mask. My son donated another one. When I called her and told her we had 2 masks for her, she became excited, she was offering money, and she was ecstatic...
She came, stayed in a car and away from us. Said we could not trust the numbers as there were still very few people tested. The real scope of the pandemic here is not even known, and there are more sick people, than the reports say.
And she kept thanking us...
I was ashamed. Ashamed that a medical doctor, who was in the forefront dealing with people sick with coronavirus, did not have protection.
Is she a hero?
Then someone is a moron if after cases in China we still did nothing to protect the population and the doctors.
Just stay alive, my friend...
