First, I’d like to start by thanking all the people who are at the very front line of taking care of the COVID-19 patients. The nurses, doctors, respiratory therapists, EMTs, clinical partners, and surgical techs have been battling the highly contagious COVID-19 disease, even when it means risking their own lives. Their patience, perseverance, and dedication make me proud and privileged to be a nurse.
In New York City, number of COVID-19 cases currently top at 160,000 with 12,287 deaths while Los Angeles has confirmed 19,528 cases with 913 deaths. Healthcare workers in New York City are working tirelessly while the hospitals in California are half empty due to cancelled elective surgeries. For those of you who are financially stressed, consider how you can make extra cash during the Great Lock Down.
