I don’t think anyone questions that doctors, nurses and other hospital workers involved in caring for patients deserve to be at the front of the line for COVID-19 vaccines.
But what about hospital employees who don’t come face-to-face with patients, work in hospital labs or mop operating room floors?
I’m talking about people in administration, marketing and fundraising to name just a few of the hospital jobs where going to work every day doesn’t significantly increase the risk of contracting the coronavirus more than any other office job.
