Solidarity stories in COVID-19 era
We can safely say that the pandemic caused by COVID19 has turned the world we knew “upside down”.
Unfortunately, this virus has brought us much sadness and worry. Sadness for the loss of many people, concern and uncertainty regarding the risk of contagion, the future of employment, education, etc.
This side of the coin is real and is already part of our daily lives, but we cannot stay with it. After all, as the phrase goes: “Behind every problem lies an opportunity”. And this is as true as what we said at the beginning.
Difficult and painful situations are the context for learning and change, both at the individual and community levels. And this has been demonstrated in the most difficult moments of this pandemic. Whether on television, in the press or on social media, we all know stories of people who, in an altruistic way, have given their time, dedication and effort to others. True examples of solidarity aimed at helping in the difficult health situation we have experienced.
With this article we would like to acknowledge and thank our colleague Ángeles for her work to help fight the virus. During the quarantine, he devoted much of his time to making masks so that our health workers could carry out their work in the best possible safety conditions.
