‘The strength of people's hearts': Venezuelan doctors, neighbors unite


Facing a shortage of supplies amid the coronavirus pandemic and with little help from the government on the horizon, doctors and community members across Venezuela "created a grassroots support network" as a means of making sure doctors would be properly outfitted to treat patients. Between pooled resources and various donations, the effort has resulted in "3,000 face masks, 2,000 meals, gallons of sanitizing alcohol, hand disinfectant and soap, and boxes of gloves" being delivered to medical professionals.
