COVID-19 Programming jobs

With all the articles about the systems written in COBOL failing, who is fixing these problems? I started out as a mainframe programmer - did it for over 10 years.... Where can we get these jobs?

"COBOL programmers are in demand to fight the coronavirus pandemic" - see 'Helping address the need' section, hope this helps. https://www.techrepublic.com/article/cobol-programmers-are-in-demand-to-fight-the-coronavirus-pandemic/

A tech recruiter or two might be a good option. Even if you go in as a contractor, many of those jobs will provide references or even turn permanent. It's niche, so when they need you, they really need you.
