The Inspiring Stories of Our Masked Defenders

Featured is Linda Silva, a health care worker who shortly after recovering from covid-19, and without any hesitation, returned to care for others at the nursing home where she caught the disease. Staring up at Linda is a little girl—the true subject of the piece—dreaming of her future, of helping others and inspired by Linda, who looks so much like her.  In New York City, where Linda Silva works and lives, more than 76% of health care workers are people of color. This illustration celebrates this heroic group of people.
