In solidarity with all nurses
Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, nurses have become increasingly visible on the world-wide stage. We have provided exceptional care, endured great personal sacrifice, and innovated in the most challenging of circumstances. We have served tirelessly on the front lines and borne witness to an overwhelming number of deaths, giving comfort to many so they would not die alone.
To the global community of nurses – THANK YOU. We owe an enormous debt of gratitude to every nurse worldwide and mourn those whose lives were lost to this virus. Together, with courage and commitment, we will look to the future and ensure nurses have an influential role in decision-making to improve health and social care. I will continue to fight for recognition, proper protections, and improved working conditions for nurses throughout, and beyond, this pandemic.
