Let’s protect the vulnerable among us

The UN secretary-general, António Guterres, during the launch of a Covid-19 global humanitarian response plan on March 23 2020 said, “We must come to the aid of the ultra-vulnerable – millions upon millions of people who are the least able to protect themselves. This is a matter of basic human solidarity. It is also crucial for combating the virus. This is the moment to step up for the vulnerable.”
