Award the George Cross to the NHS as a whole for the ultimate sacrifice given
I would like the Government to award the George Cross to the National Health Service as a whole in recognition of the service given and the life's lost by members of staff of the NHS in providing health care to population during the Covid 19 National Emergency.
Every member of the NHS deserves recognition as they are all part of the team. Every time one of them cross the door to go to work with total disregards to their own safety they having been willing to put their own life at risk to ensure that health care is provided and administered to those that need it the most.
