As the COVID 19 numbers continue to climb daily, and the number of infected healthcare workers continues to rise - the owner of a trophy company thought he'd do more than just sing the praises of these frontline workers. Reginald Jex of Jex trophies crated close to a thousand medals to give one to all those doctors, nurses, and EMT's.

Andrew Baird, the vice president of the Nurses Association told us more:

Medals have been distributed to Southern Regional Hospital, San Pedro and Punta Gorda, and distribution is being arranged to other hospitals.
