In the same vein, health professionals have teamed up to ensure that their services are well dispensed. Queen Elizabeth's recent statement signified to healthcare givers across the kingdom that she recognizes their efforts and is also appreciative of the work they have put in so far. The Crown applauded their services by stating:
"On the occasion of World Health Day, I want to thank all those working in the health care professionals for your selfless commitment and diligence."
The post also featured a clip that showed different members of the royal family, including the Queen, as they met with these health care professionals. A few hours before the statement, the Crown addressed Britons via a pre-recorded broadcast from Windsor Palace.

"Together, we are tackling this disease, and I want to assure you that if we remain united and resolute, then we will overcome it."
