World leaders, governments, policymakers, and donors must act for health workers and address persistent health worker challenges during COVID-19 and beyond.
There’s no health care, and no global health security, without health workers. Frontline health workers are the first and often only link for health services for millions of people around the world. They’re essential to detecting outbreaks like COVID-19 and leading the response, including through education, treatment, and distributing vaccines.
Countries and donors should invest in these actions to support frontline health workers—including community health workers—in low- and middle-income countries to end the pandemic and ensure uninterrupted access to essential health services.
