Cleveland.com Article on Vaccine Hesitancy Features One of Our Members

AMCNO member Dr. Sumita Khatri, who is the director of the Cleveland Clinic Asthma Center and vice chairwoman of the Respiratory Institute, was featured in a Cleveland.com article on overcoming COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy.

The article highlights the need for educating the public on why it’s important they get immunized.

Dr. Khatri said Cleveland Clinic physicians and nurses are encouraged to be open-minded and empathetic when talking with patients who have not yet been vaccinated, and the health system has added suggested talking points for these conversations to their intranet site dedicated to COVID-19.

We thank Dr. Khatri for participating in the interview and lending her expertise to this public health issue.
