Today our doctors, nurses, techs, resp therapists, cleaning crews & social workers in NY have already done beyond the hours, risks & trauma of a frontline war they didn’t sign up for.
They can’t do it forever.3/

You can also help feed people if you’re not hungry, support workers if you can, or find other ways. If you listen to #inthebubble, my proceeds all go to this fund. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/in-the-bubble-with-andy-slavitt/id1504128553 7/
