It really is impossible during the current situation to overstate just how fucking wonderful some people have been throughout the whole international shitshow that is Covid-19.
However international nurses day seems like the perfect day to tip a hat and say thank you to nurses, doctors (fuck it, all health professionals) as well as to all of the other equally important but perhaps under-mentioned workers during this whole thing.
There’s no point in naming them as someone will inevitably be forgotten but during times like these, we can see the best of people and it’s those people that I prefer to think about on days like these.
Cheers to nurses (and other empathy ninjas!)
