Editor's note: Find the latest COVID-19 news and guidance in Medscape's Coronavirus Resource Center.
As front-line healthcare workers care for patients with COVID-19, they commit themselves to difficult, draining work and also put themselves at risk of infection. More than 100 throughout the world have died. Medscape wants to make sure they are not forgotten, and we will update this list as — sadly — needed.
Medscape needs your help to ensure this list is complete. Please submit names with an age, profession or specialty, and location through this form.
