The COVID-19 epidemic has put unprecedented strain on health care systems around the world. Frontline health workers are still at great risk, from lack of personal protective equipment (PPE) to discrimination and harassment or repercussions for whistleblowing #HealthWorkerProtest

“How hard can it be to maintain these records?” Rehan Raja asked. “Not keeping count goes to show how less the government cares for our welfare—for the sacrifices we and our families have made.”

We’re going to see lots of these healthworker strikes given how badly health workers are treated around the world. I hope they get paid!

Just got to know from a Mitanin #ASHA in @BemetaraDist that #Chhattisgarh govt is TAKING BACK #Covid19 incentive they were given this year. This is shameful! What is your explanation @HealthCgGov @ChhattisgarhCMO @MoHFW_INDIA?

So 40,000 SEIU Kaiser workers are joining the 32,000 Alliance Kaiser workers in a "sympathy strike." Then 8,000 others may join shortly, as well as NUHW, pharmacists, and engineers. We are talking 80,000+ Kaiser workers on strike. One of the largest healthcare strikes in history.

How are health workers harnessing that 2020 energy? Hopefully like @civichealth_all … @HealthWorkerPro
When @saranya_loehrer @alikhan28 @dr_msharma and I imagined what came after @votehealth2020, we knew we wanted to build something that would have a lasting impact on civic engagement in healthcare. Civic Health Alliance @civichealth_all is that brainchild! 🧵
