Hanoi café gives free coffee to frontline doctors

While normal citizens can contribute to the fight against COVID-19 simply by staying at home, doctors and soldiers have to stand at the frontlines of the disease, staring the pandemic straight in the eyes.

Over the past couple of weeks, pictures showing the hardships that quarantine staff deal with have been widely shared on the Internet, attracting sentiments from the community.

A café in Hanoi has decided to take a step further in supporting these heroes by delivering free coffee to doctors and nurses working in a quarantine facility outside the city.
