I wrote this 2 years ago. The reason I’ve been in isolation for over a week is b/c I responded on 9/11 and got sick. I was 21 and it was my job. That day and the days that followed were hard to get through. I’m not sure why young people are finding it so hard to simply stay home.
Going out at this point is only putting more people at risk. First responders, medical workers, sanitation, and other necessary workers are working around the clock. We should be trying to limit their exposure as well. #besmart #COVID19
Context: Tommy was a ferry boat captain on 9/11. Instead of docking he kept making return trips to lower Manhattan and is responsible for evacuating thousands. He served in the @USCG as well as the @FDNY. In Nov 2017 he ran the NYC marathon. Just 5 months later he died.
