A prayer for all

I wrote this prayer dedicated to all those who are working to keep the coronavirus from spreading in a more devastating manner.
Almighty God, we ask your protection on the entire world as we all struggle to contain further damage from the coronavirus. We pray for all those who died that they will receive eternal rest. We pray for those who are presently sick with this virus, that they will soon recover and resume their normal lives. We pray for all those who are in quarantine and are nervous about the outcome of their temporary isolation period. We pray for all the doctors who are taking care of the patients, that they will be safe and strong enough to continue their dedicated care. We pray for all the nurses and medical assistants who are somehow risking their own lives to save many other lives. We pray for the elderly who may be the most vulnerable, that they will stay safe, even though they cannot see their loved ones for a while. We pray for airlines, companies, businesses, hoteliers and restaurant owners, that they will not suffer unnecessary loss. And we pray finally for those who are working on a vaccine to tackle this virus, and for all scientists and medical experts that they will be guided to find an effective solution soon.
