We are being unfair towards front liners

The increase of covid19 cases in our country, proves we don't admire or care about the front livers. More specifically our medical personnel, whom most of them got infected doing their job. What is so hard about wearing mask? or staying home when you don't really have important else to go except groceries and medicine? People think that if it's GCQ, were free and can do things normally again, it's not. The virus is still there, people kept getting infected because some just chose to be ignorant. But what's worst is that when the patient goes berserk and took a Doctor "Hostage". I realized that it's not just the virus anymore, but also the behavior of patients when they get tired of being quarantined. Then there's discrimination of the front liners because of simple fear that they (community) might get infected by them. Unless this is really the beginning of the end, there's permanent vaccine yet.

@yoalldudes agree. These frontliners are risking their lives to cure people infected with this virua and we don't give them enough credit for it

Sounds like going up everywhere. US must be just picking on US then. That being said learned some things in the line of work I am in. The Virus can only live up to 77 degrees. ihey should make all building teperate levels at 78 and say to swig a drink of water every 15 minutes. If virus is passed, swig of water will wash it down to wear your stomach acid can kill it.

Hello @crossbones27 I read that he went mad because no one was taking paying him any attention. sadly, it's humid here. It's zigzaging to rain and sunny by the day.

the hostage-taking was i think, something unexpected of a security personnel to do. it was not the doctor's fault why he had the virus. maybe there were other patients needing more care than the guard, but even then, that is not a reason. the guard is a frontliner but so is the doctor. i am sorry but i missed the news on TV when this was broadcasted.

Hello @ridingbet The hostage taker had no right to do that to the Doctor, it's not easy wearing that PPE..

I have worn a PPE and I can say it is really really very uncomfortable. I felt drained out within two hours.. the doctors and the nurses are doing a great job
