SAN FRANCISCO (KPIX 5) — A cacophonous wave swept through a San Francisco apartment complex Monday night as neighbors turned out to yell, bang pots and pans, and express their support for the frontline workers confronting the coronavirus crisis.
The movement, titled #GetLoudForOurHeroes on social media, began Monday evening precisely at 7 p.m. Neighbors in San Francisco’s Fillmore district took to their balconies and also spaced themselves through a courtyard at a safe distance to give a literal shout out to the essential people who are still going to work every day.
