Our doctors and nurses are the true heroes of our times – they are every day risking their lives to save the lives of others. They are going even over the borders of their strength and durability, not thinking about themselves but always having the wellbeing of others on their mind. We must all do what we can to support their fight and to help them in performing their precious work, for the good of our people”, said Crown Princess Katherine.
