Subject: Front line health workers

Hello everyone, I was reading that there are shortages of medical supplies in some hospitals across the globe. Specifically I was reading about how hard New York is being hit by the pandemic and I was hoping that someone might be able to assist. New York is a city of nations, one made up of all the nations on earth and we need to help them and every country in need. I was hopeful we can start coordinations globally to ensure no matter what country, our medical responders are protected. They like many of you, are heroes during this crisis and I appreciate everyone helping. In times like this we cannot forget one another despite the fear and anxiety we face. We will get through this but we need our medical professionals healthy. If there is anyone who has spare supplies that they can send to New York, Italy, China and Spain it would mean life and death for some. I realize at this time that everyone is worried and scrambling but we cannot panic. We will endure, through careful planning, medical directives and support we will rise from this stronger. You don’t know me but I believe in all of you and I know that together we will beat the virus. I humbly implore anyone to help if they can. Remember, we are all in this together and together we will rise stronger united as one people. I love you all. Stay Safe, Stay Sanitized and Stay Supportive. John Ames Birch @johneames2
