Hi everyone! Just a friendly reminder from Hollywood heartthrob Patrick Dempsey that there is still a GLOBAL PANDEMIC GOING ON!

Information about the coronavirus pandemic is rapidly changing and Diply is committed to providing the most recent data as it becomes available. Some of the information in this story may have changed since publication, and we encourage readers to use online resources from CDC and WHO to stay up to date on the latest information surrounding COVID-19.

Some people would rather trust the opinions of TV doctors than real doctors, and for that, we must thank the actors in these medical shows for taking the initiative to educate their fans!

This includes Grey's Anatomy actors like Patrick Dempsey!

Every *Grey's Anatomy* fan knows McDreamy's classic line, "It's a beautiful night to save lives."

So when Patrick Dempsey took to his Instagram to remind fans of the importance of wearing a mask, it was beautiful and so important!!!!

Patrick's *Grey's Anatomy* costar Ellen Pompeo has also taken to social media to express her concerns about the COVID-19 pandemic.

In fact, Ellen was asked by real life health care workers to post a video about the severity of COVID because people weren't listening to them!

Patrick is now also spreading awareness about COVID safety. "It’s a Beautiful Day to Save Lives," the actor captioned the picture of him wearing a mask, alongside the hashtags #WearAMask #COVID19 #YourActionsSaveLives.

Naturally, everyone was living for the post. Not only is it a throwback to an iconic line, but it's a great message!

"Make me cry why don't ya," wrote one fan.

"I'm not crying, you're crying," wrote another.

"Thank you for this! People need to be reminded that we're still in the middle of a global pandemic!!!!"

Twitter was also so proud of Patrick for standing up for the importance of wearing a mask!

Of course, famously, this person on Twitter did MISQUOTE the iconic Derek Shepherd line, but the message still stands!!!!

The post had over 1 million likes in less than 24 hours! It's so nice to see that this message is hitting home for so many people!
