Honoring those who couldn’t stay home.

Origin & Impact

While most quarantined, #FrontlineHeroes celebrated healthcare workers, grocery store employees, delivery drivers, and others risking exposure daily. The hashtag shared images of exhausted doctors and creative tributes like nightly cheering.

It highlighted inequality between remote workers and essential employees, though gratitude didn’t always translate to better pay or protection.
