Joining tens of thousands of other Brigham employees, iHub team members received their COVID-19 vaccines as part of the phased vaccination efforts in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Read on to discover why we were more than ready to stand in line for a shot:
To protect my family, coworkers, and community and lead by example for those that may be afraid of getting the vaccine. —Don Gummow, Innovation Analyst#IGotTheShot because I believe in science and I trust the Brigham’s vaccine trials. I’m grateful for the hard work of our team that made rapid, safe vaccination possible for our caregivers and colleagues with #COVIDPass. I love my family and want to be there for them and all who I care about. Let’s slow the spread and end this pandemic. Together. —Santosh Mohan, Managing Director
It’s a privilege to have been able to work on the vaccination efforts for MGB staff through COVID Pass. I believe it’s my duty to be vaccinated to protect the patients and people I work with and care for. —Mark Zhang, Medical Director
I am thankful for all those that were involved in vaccine creation and distribution, especially the Covid Pass, IS, and Epic teams that made it possible for thousands of frontline clinicians across multiple hospitals to schedule their vaccines. It is our responsibility as healthcare employees to keep patients, hospital visitors, care supporters, and colleagues safe by getting vaccinated. —Rin Sato, Innovation Analyst
For public health. For myself. For my family. And for the community. It has provided a huge sense of relief since I completed my doses. I am privileged and fortunate to be eligible–and want to set as an example for others to also get their shot when available. —Chen Cao, Innovation Strategy Manager
