Covid-19 has claimed thousands of lives in New York, and medical professionals are working around the clock to treat patients coming into the emergency room. Rob Gore is one of those doctors fighting the battle against the virus, wearing a hazmat suit for long shifts at the hospital. He’s even taking care of friends, neighbours and co-workers in intensive care. Outlook last spoke to Rob in 2018 about his work preventing the gun violence he saw around him in his community. He set up an organisation called KAVI – Kings Against Violence Initiative.
