Two weeks ago Dr. Janee Bey, TriHealth System Chief of Hospital Medicine, shared why she chose to get the COVID-19 vaccine.
Today we launch the “Vaccinated for YOU” campaign, a community awareness and communications initiative to educate and motivate all our patients and community members to get their COVID-19 vaccine.
Terri Hanlon-Bremer, MSN, RN, Vice President of Employer Solutions and Corporate Health, shared why she chose to get the COVID-19 vaccine:
“This pandemic has impacted our human connection, and I worry about the impact of isolation that this pandemic has caused. We know that anxiety and depression has substantially escalated and the long-term impact on one’s overall well-being is of concern to me. I am someone who loves connecting with others through personal touch, such as a warm hug, a high five, a playful tap, or a kiss(with my family members). COVID has disrupted all of this as we need to maintain social distancing, and I hate it! So for me, I am getting the vaccine so we can get back to what we are built for- human connection!”
When you get your second dose, pick up your “I got vaccinated for YOU” button.

I got vaccinated because I did not want my family to go through anything like we did with my dad. We lost my dad from covid in November.
