"Your donation will support pandemic relief by giving doctors, nurses, and other frontline workers the resources they need to act quickly and protect the most vulnerable," said Lead Producer Joe "New001" Tung, "Money raised will also provide critical financial aid to families and individuals who've been negatively impacted by the virus."

If you want to support the effort, and help the healthcare workers that are currently on the frontlines — and if your current situation allows you to do so — you know what to do.

In any case, stay safe and take care.
