Resource Summary: We at Migrant Clinicians Network have a priority to support both clinicians and the vulnerable patients they serve. MCN continually develops strategies and resources to support health centers, health departments, community groups, and clinicians as they reach out to communities that are often overlooked and give care to patients who might otherwise have nowhere to go. We remain highly concerned for the vulnerable populations that already encounter numerous barriers to health and to care.

We remain highly concerned for the vulnerable populations that already encounter numerous barriers to health and to care. Recommendations are changing every day. As new data are gathered and research is carried out, our understanding of COVID-19, how it works, how it spreads, and how to prevent it, including vaccines, is refined. Necessarily, our recommendations must adjust. Please continue to review recommendations from the CDC and adjust strategies accordingly.
