"I am grateful for your loyalty and passion for the world we cover."

Baldwin reflected on all the moments she's covered throughout the years during her time on CNN, including natural and environmental disasters, putting a spotlight on social justice movements, and of course, the ongoing global pandemic.

Last year, Baldwin expressed her shock when she shared the news of being diagnosed with the Corona Virus on 3 April. She went on to make a full recovery and later thanked her viewers for their support throughout her ordeal.

Her diagnosis prompted Baldwin to want to give back, and she revealed her desire to donate some of her plasma to those in desperate need following her recovery.

Regarding what the future has in store for Baldwin, the anchor shared with viewers that she has been working on her first book, "Huddle: How Women Unlock Their Collective Power" over the past couple of years.
