PIH and key partners are building a campaign to advocate for the U.S. government to build a larger workforce to help stop COVID-19, strengthen the economy, and build equitable public health systems across the nation.

With PIH's support, states and municipalities battling COVID-19 are hiring and training residents as community health workers to connect patients and their families with care and support.

Since Partners In Health launched its contact tracing partnership with the state of Massachusetts in April, contact tracers have made roughly 750,000 calls across the state—connecting COVID-19 patients with vital care and resources. In this multimedia feature, contact tracers share first-hand accounts.

Partners In Health leaders provide insights and expertise on the importance of local health systems in the global COVID-19 response, informed by PIH's work in Mexico, Lesotho and the U.S.

PIH is advising the Illinois Department of Public Health as it scales a contact tracing program to meet the unique needs of the communities it serves--one of several programs within PIH's U.S. Public Health Accompaniment Unit launched in response to COVID-19.

Dr. Marta Lado and Dr. Regan Marsh have seen challenges, injustices, and successes fighting the pandemic in disparate settings.

Partners In Health sat down with Thomas Sequist to discuss a recent piece he wrote for the New England Journal of Medicine that examines the impact of COVID-19 on the Navajo Nation and Chelsea, Massachusetts.
