.@WHO estimates 115,000 health workers have died from #Covid19. Huge, tragic loss.
And while some health workers in the US are QUITTING jobs because they don't want to be vaccinated, many HCWs around the world are still waiting for vaccine. Unconscionable. https://t.co/z4u9XSX2Wj— Helen Branswell (@HelenBranswell) October 21, 2021
