I would expect there'll be a lot more of this in the next little while.
A call to arms by a concerned Perth resident on the weekend has already attracted thousands of volunteers to assist nurses, doctors and others under strain from the burgeoning health crisis.

The Facebook page Adopt a Healthcare Worker encourages the public to adopt a frontline health worker and help them out with everything from shopping to cleaning their home.

A friend of mine and I are speculating that mental health issues are going to spike. We're an adaptable species, and we've been through worse in living memory, but we'll only bounce back if we take care of each other.

Take care of each other, folks.
