Special Medal to recognise health workers during the Coronavirus outbreak
National recognition for health workers going beyond the call of duty during a national crisis. We are at war with a global pandemic and in similar circumstances we would acknowledge their sacrifices.
The country will want to show their thanks to those who are saving lives by putting their own at risk.
In a conventional war we would bestow medals - our health workers deserve the same.
