AHA, AMA, ANA thank health care professionals and urge them to share experiences with COVID-19 vaccine
In an open letter today, the AHA, American Medical Association and American Nurses Association thanked health care professionals for their dedication and sacrifices this year and urged them to continue their battle against COVID-19 by taking a vaccine and sharing their experience with others.
“As frontline caregivers, our essential role in protecting the health and wellbeing of our communities goes beyond the care we provide,” the letter notes. “As a valued and trusted voice, our example is perhaps the strongest health resource we have.”
