This book shows how people have stepped up to volunteer to do necessary work, often without pay, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Volunteers do shopping for seniors and care for the pets of people in the hospital. Businesses have switched over to making things in short supply, such as protective masks and hand sanitizer. Even children have made inspirational signs on sidewalks and in windows.
Doctors, nurses, and hospital cleaners, as well as workers providing home care and long-term care have continued to give us often lifesaving care during COVID-19. This book shows how health care workers have met the enormous challenges of the pandemic, at great risk to their own health.
Many of us have been able to stay home to keep safe in the COVID-19 pandemic. This book shows how this would not be possible without food workers continuing to work to farm and produce our food, deliver it by truck, sell it to us in stores, and make sure everything is clean.
We see city workers every day. They deliver the mail, collect garbage, clean public places, and teach at school. This book shows how the COVID-19 pandemic made everyone realize just how much we rely on these workers to keep our daily lives running smoothly--and safely!
