Experts say a spirit of solidarity between people is as important as government intervention to stop the coronavirus pandemic
As the death toll from the Coronavirus pandemic passes 40,000 with close to a million cases worldwide, people from all walks of life are creating a spirit of solidarity through acts of kindness.
Lady Gaga is one of them. The singer’s beauty brand HAUS has announced that it will donate a portion of its revenues to virus relief efforts in the US. Swiss tennis star Roger Federer, who is regarded as one of the best players in history, has also offered his help. But it’s not just the entertainment and sporting elite helping, ordinary citizens are doing what they can to help the fight.
“When one country is struck by an epidemic, it should be willing to honestly share information about the outbreak without fear of economic catastrophe – while other countries should be able to trust that information, and should be willing to extend a helping hand rather than ostracize the victim.”
