I think sometimes we forget that one of the reasons we want to be disciplined about wearing our face masks and about social distancing is to protect our health care workers as well as those we love. They have families they’re terrified of infecting just like we do.

The stress of 13-hour shifts, of dealing with so much illness and death day after day is more than most of us can imagine.

If you missed last night’s episode of NOVA, it may help you understand more about the virus, the effect it’s having on our health care workers, and how we can defeat it.
