"Be Strong In The Storm" is a poster by Diane Kaufman, MD and Amanda Sloan submitted to the UN Call for Creatives to Help Stop the Spread of COVID-19. The poster was inspired by my saying to a patient and her family, “stay strong in the storm,” and then afterwards remembering the song, “When You Walk Through a Storm,” by Rogers and Hammerstein from their musical Carousel. Little did I know when creating the poster concept that this song was already being used internationally to honor the lives, courage, and sacrifice of health care workers in the COVID-19 crisis. The declaration, "Be Safe. Be Strong. Together We'll Weather The Coronavirus Storm" together with its depiction of safe healthcare practices can become an international life saving anthem for all people.
