Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, has come out of retirement with a message to key workers involved in tackling the coronavirus and keeping essential services running.
The British Royal Family posted Prince Philip’s message on Monday, 20 April 2020 via social media.
As we approach World Immunisation Week, I wanted to recognise the vital and urgent work being done by so many to tackle the pandemic; by those in the medical and scientific professions, at universities and research institutions, all united in working to protect us from Covid-19.
On behalf of those of us who remain safe and at home, I also wanted to thank all key workers who ensure the infrastructure of our life continues; the staff and volunteers working on food production and distribution, those keeping postal and delivery services going, and those ensuring the rubbish continues to be collected.
HRH Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh
