COVID-19 infections have skyrocketed in the U.S. since the first confirmed case was announced. As the outbreak's epicenter, New York was hit hard, and residents have been trying to cope with life under siege like never before.
Yuchen Lin, a registered nurse in New York City who graduated just last year, has put others' lives first by dedicating herself to saving them. She assists minorities without health insurance and underprivileged individuals who lack financial resources. Lin has also taken strict precautions to protect herself from contracting the virus.
\"Fear is common when fighting with an enemy you can't see, but in the beginning, I was very worried. But afterward, I just feel like I do everything I can do,\" Lin shared. Her unwavering commitment highlights the challenges faced by healthcare workers and the vulnerable populations they serve.
Looking ahead, Lin believes a second wave of COVID-19 is imminent, urging communities to remain vigilant and continue supporting frontline workers.
