According to data provided by the Center for Systems Science and Engineering (CSSE) at Johns Hopkins University (JHU), as of April 23, there are 2,649,680 total confirmed cases of COVID-19 globally. Out of those, 184,643 have resulted in death. As a response to the global pandemic, countries across the world have taken various measures to prevent and minimize the spread of the virus. Many governments have issued a stay-at-home order as social distancing and physical isolation are considered a key to prevent the spread of the respiratory illness.

Unfortunately, not everyone is content enough to stay at home and stay safe. Dozens of citizens left their houses to protest in the streets, bearing signs expressing their dislike of the quarantine measures. But amidst the chaos, we should not forget those who stand at the front lines of this terrible pandemic—medical care workers. Here is their reality, their everyday battle. Healthcare workers shared not only their red and bruised faces, but their thoughts and stories as well.
