I want to thank you for setting a good example for the community during the holidays. I know many of you, like myself, opted out of your traditional holiday plans of gathering with your extended family or volunteering. I would like to personally thank you for your commitment to keeping our colleagues, patients, and community safe. We are hopeful the community followed your example, as many of them value your expertise now more than ever. In the event that we do experience a COVID-19 surge following the holiday gatherings, please know our leadership team has been working diligently to ensure we are prepared. We are also preparing for the new phase of the pandemic, where new medications and vaccines are becoming available. RMC is a primary site to distribute these lifesaving medications, and we look forward to the promise and hope these medications will bring to our employees, patients, and communities. 2020 is certainly a year to remember, and my hope for each of you is that the good outweighed the bad, joy outweighed sorrow, and hope outweighs despair as we move together into the New Year. Happy Holidays to you and your family, from your Research Family. Warm regards,
