Following the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), most people retreated into their homes to decrease their chances of infection. Essential health care workers, however, have done the opposite, remaining in the line of fire as they attempt to heal the sick and control the spread of the disease.

Hospital networks and physicians in the U.S. are now asking Americans to pause at 8:00 p.m. local time every night, for a moment of appreciation or even to go to a balcony or window and clap, as a show of thanks and gratitude to those who risk their lives for the benefit of others.

The idea stemmed from similar displays of gratitude in Spain, Italy, France and Israel, where citizens opened up their windows to applaud health care and wellness workers on their way to their jobs.

Article says if you can’t do it today, do it tomorrow. And Monday, etc.

I think it’s a great idea.

 Does this mean I get to go home at 8 o’clock today?


With visitors not allowed  and our census down, my hospital is  like a ghost town for now
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

If I step out on the Castle Deck at 8PM and cheer, it'll scare the bunnies and coyotes.
For unvaccinated, we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death — if you’re unvaccinated — for themselves, their families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm. Sloe Joe Biteme 12/16
I will NOT comply.

Kudos to our Health Care professionals ....   Basically the soldiers in this battle.

I started out in Pre-Med.  Knew after a year and a half, it wasn't for me.

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

Good luck, Nikki !!

Anything to support the people working their asses off.

Some of the strongest, toughest, most giving and overall best human beings in this country are in the medical profession.

And they ARE in the frontline of this war.

This is a GREAT idea!!
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

Use the time God is giving us to seek His will and feel His presence.

They have joined the military, the police and firefighters as the bravest heroes this country has.

May God bless and protect them all!!
