Our commitment to regular, fact-based, transparent communication remains steadfast. In this week’s video, I share more about what we are doing on our campuses and within the community. Our team-driven response highlights every day how much stronger we are when working toward a common goal.
Many of you have asked how you can direct your energy and resources during this crisis. The simplest and most effective way is to stay home and encourage others to do the same. Social distancing is the best way to protect yourselves and those who are most vulnerable to the virus, including our patients.
You also can provide financial support by donating to our Patient Assistance Program and Caring Fund to support our patients and employees who are affected by COVID-19.
The continuing resilience and courage of our employees, patients and their loved ones during the COVID-19 pandemic inspire each of us every day. I invite you to view this virtual performance by our employee choir. These health care heroes recorded this video from nearly 30 different locations. Not only did it serve to lift spirits internally, it has now been highlighted and shared all over the nation by CNN, the Today Show and others.
You can continue to monitor updates on MD Anderson’s progress during the COVID-19 pandemic. My thoughts remain with you during this trying time. I am grateful for your partnership in Making Cancer History®.
