Queen’s Gallantry Medal for all NHS & Carers who have lost their lives COVID19
Those carers who have cared for covid19 patients and lost their lives deserve recognition for their selfless sacrifice while caring for others.
I believe they deserve similar recognition to those fighting a visible enemy and facing life threatening danger.
You are the only authority who can recognise their sacrifice and award an appropriate medal to honour their ultimate sacrifice. A medal would recognise their bravery and give a lasting memorial to their selfless bravery. I believe the Queen’s Gallantry Medal would be the appropriate medal presented posthumously
