Adrian, MI- Medical leaders from 21 hospital systems, including ProMedica Health, signed an open letter to Michigan residents pleading for people to get vaccinated.
The letter comes after an increase of COVID-19 cases across the state, which leaders warn could turn into a fourth wave.
Across the United States, approximately 99% of individuals dying from COVID-19 are unvaccinated.
There is added concern as children return to school and pediatric intensive care units begin seeing a surge in infected patients.
As the leaders of organizations that treat and advise Michigan patients across the state, the letter ends with the signers asking Michigan residents to, “Please trust us now when we guide you to get this vaccine.”
