Let's just take a moment to salute our nurses and medical workers. You all are genuine heroes working tirelessly every day to save our lives, while putting your own lives at risk. We hope these memes will serve as the tiniest bit of appreciation for your hard work. 

Head on over to eBaum's World for more nursing humor!

It's probably safe to say that most of us are extremely over the pandemic and its BS at this point, but sadly that won't make it go away any faster. It's important that we all keep social distancing as much as possible and wearing masks. Booo. 

Now click here for some memes that'll remind you of how horrible the American healthcare system is!

Whether you're fighting on the front lines for COVID-19 patients, or for the injured protesters taking to the streets during the police brutality marches, we appreciate you and we think you deserve some memes.

We know, we know: memes are great and all but they aren't going to pay your bills or address any of the mental anguish you're going through right now. We strongly agree, and we think y'all should be valued monetarily, but we hope that in the mean time, these memes will at least make you laugh and lift your spirits!

We won't make any further mention of that horrible thing going on in the world right now, but we do want to once again thank our heroic healthcare workers! 

It may cost a horrifying amount of money to visit the doctor here in America, but lucky for you browsing through these memes is completely free!

To all the healthcare workers out there during the COVID-19 pandemic: we can't express our gratitude enough. You put your life at risk every single day in this thankless hell and you can't even get enough medical supplies to do your damn job. Our hats are off to you. Unfortunately, we can't offer you much in this trying time, but we can give you some memes to scroll through in your limited down time. 

Now check out some more memes about how horrible the American healthcare system is while you're at it!

It's no secret that the American healthcare system isn't known for being the best in the world. If you're poor and need to have some sort of procedure done in a hospital, you can look forward to a hefty bill that may or may not put you into debt for years to come. And if you aren't fortunate enough to receive a health insurance plan through your employer? Well, we don't even want to think about that...

Here are 17 memes and tweets that highlight the trials and tribulations of health insurance in America!

If it wasn't time to panic before, it certainly is now. Coronavirus has officially spread to most of Europe, North America, Asia, and the Middle East, and doesn't seem to be slowing down any time soon. Luckily however, if you're not elderly or have an underlying illness, you likely won't die or experience any sort of further complications. So to further help you find some humor in such a dire situation, have some memes!

Alright let's get this out of the way: we're all worried about coronavirus. None of us want to be quarantined and potentially die, but hey, if you are quarantined, let's look on the bright side - you can chill in your own home, not go to work, and look at memes all day. It's always good to see a light at the end of the tunnel, right?

Honestly, none of us can afford to go to the doctor anyway, so let's just look at memes until the pain goes away. You won't regret it, probably. Want to feel even more sad? Take a look at this gallery of memes about the American healthcare system to make you lose hope for humanity.

Many of us have dealt with the "joys" of the American healthcare system firsthand, whether that be the inability to afford an astronomical bill from a trip to the emergency room, or the high costs of necessary medication. 

Michelle DuBarry dealt with one of the most unimaginable horrors a person could experience - the loss of a child, and her nightmarish experience with the health insurance company directly after.

On a bit of a lighter note, here are some amusing memes about the American healthcare system that will make you laugh and then feel sad again.

Stroke expert Liam Healy tweeted out a story about an Irish stroke patient who made a miraculous recovery when the odds of her survival were incredibly low. Needless to say, the story gave us some hope in a world full of constant bad news. Is it time for us to finally start believing in miracles?

Let's give three cheers to all the nurses who work tirelessly to deal with obnoxious, entitled patients, administer vaccines, and work stupidly long hours just to make sure that we're all healthy. We appreciate your grit and think you deserve some memes to look at while you enjoy a much-needed break.

Those who deal with chronic illnesses are no doubt used to getting asinine comments from ignorant people about how you should just "exercise away the pain," or "try cutting dairy out of your diet." 

Quite frankly, it can get exhausting trying to explain things to stupid people - that's why we decided to throw together a gallery full of memes to help you feel a little more understood.

Whether you're a doctor, nurse or dietitian, we know that these memes will relate to you and your stress-filled career. Just remember to take a little break from your busy day every once in a while - and what better way to do that than with memes?
