The spread of COVID-19 both internationally and domestically has significantly impacted many aspects of the health care ecosystem

The following resources are intended to help NHC members and others in the patient advocacy community manage and communicate about COVID-19. This is a very fluid situation, and there are likely to be ongoing changes and new impacts and information emerging daily. Please check back frequently for updates.

Building COVID-19 Vaccine Confidence & Equitable Delivery

All available COVID-19 vaccines are recognized by FDA as a safe and effective. The best vaccine is the one available to you. It is crucial that everyone who can get vaccinated does. Additionally, COVID-19 vaccination programs must meet people where they are to ensure equitable COVID-19 vaccine delivery to disadvantaged communities, especially communities of color impacted most severely by the virus.

Thank You

The NHC would like to extend its gratitude to all of the public servants and health care workers nationwide for all they are doing to protect and care for us all during this national crisis.
