'We are all in this together'
Paying their respect for the firefighters and thanking them for this initiative one of the users wrote that she loves firemen while the other echoed similar sentiments as one of his cousin's is a fireman in Denver and he got to know that his cousin and 5 of his crew are out with Coronavirus. Devastating to his wife and 3 kids. Other users saluted the medical staff of New York for their act of kindness and their efforts to treat the patients with utmost sincerity. Showering his blessings, one of the users wrote that God bless and protect you all, while another user thanked the firefighters for their beautiful gesture and wrote that thank you all for saluting the healthcare workers. All are in this together.

Me too! One of my cousin’s is a fireman in Denver . Just learned that he and 5 of his crew are out with Coronavirus. Devastating to his wife and 3 kids. THEY DIDN’T HAVE PPE. Madness.
