International Nurses Day Images: Show solidarity with the nurses today and every day, says the UN
International Nurses Day 2021: Today is International Nurses Day. On that day in 1820, Florence Nightingale – perhaps the world’s most famous nurse – was born. On International Nurses Day, the entire nursing fraternity of the world pay respect to Florence Nightingale, an English nurse, a social reformer and a statistician who founded the key pillars of modern nursing. This International Nursing Day people across the world could not be more grateful to our nurses amid the horrific coronavirus pandemic. Nurses are the backbone of the hospitals and clinics taking care of the millions of COVID-19 patients for months putting their lives at risk. According to the WHO, ”nurses account for more than half of all the world’s health workers, yet there is an urgent shortage of nurses worldwide with 5.9 million (2020) more nurses still needed, especially in low- and middle-income countries.
