"This complete stranger, who owed me nothing and is more on the front lines than I am, shared his precious masks with me, without my even asking," she wrote.

Dr. Janjua ended her tale with a message of hope, writing that "The veil of civilization may be thin, but not all that lies behind it is savage."

"Troopers are working hard during the pandemic and are thinking about all the first responders who are caring for Minnesotans during this critical time."
