Sgt. Holub, 55 years old, is part of a small, particularly vulnerable population of New Yorkers who are ill from 9/11-related conditions and suffered severe illness from the coronavirus. Responders who worked on the World Trade Center site are alert to the risk of illnesses that might worsen an existing condition, delay an organ transplant or affect chemotherapy, said Laura Crowley, MD, deputy medical director for the Selikoff Centers for Occupational Health at Mount Sinai. Many are already on multiple medications for 9/11-related conditions, she said.

Each year on #LaborDay, we honor and celebrate workers’ contributions to the strength and well-being of the country. This year, in particular, Labor Day provides us a moment to reflect and express gratitude for the extraordinary efforts made by essential workers. While many of us are at home, essential workers remain our lifeline. Our gratitude is immeasurable. https://conta.cc/31Z4u16
