Watch Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis thank health care workers fighting coronavirus
Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis joined their family in showing their support for the hard-working health care workers fighting coronavirus in the United Kingdom.
On Thursday, Kensington Palace tweeted a video showing Prince William and Duchess Kate's children — George, 6, Charlotte, 4, and Louis, 1 — participating in the #ClapForOurCarers campaign. The family thanked those who are "working tirelessly" to help people affected by the COVID-19 coronavirus, with George, Charlotte, and Louis giving doctors, nurses, and other hospital staff a hearty round of applause.
Their grandfather, Prince Charles, tested positive for coronavirus, and is in isolation in Scotland. He showed his appreciation for health care workers in his own Twitter post, as did Queen Elizabeth and the Earl and Countess of Wessex.
