Top athletes often have to be selfish in their pursuit of glory but the coronavirus outbreak has unveiled an altruistic streak in superstars from a variety of sports.
With the illness causing havoc around the globe and disrupting daily life for millions, the likes of Russell Wilson, Sadio Mane, Paul Pogba, and JJ Watt are doing their bit to help the worst affected.
The area of society worst hit by coronavirus is of course healthcare with provisions likely to be stretched to breaking point in the coming weeks.
Mane made the remarkable gesture of donating £41,000 to the Senegal health organisation to help bolster resources in his homeland.
