Beloved Members and Friends,
As more and more people are being vaccinated and hospitalization numbers decline, the U.S. seems to be emerging from the limitations of the COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, other parts of the world are dealing with surges in infections and deaths. We hold in our hearts the people of India especially, as the virus resurges and vaccines are in short supply.

Dear Members and Friends,
After almost two years of dealing with the realities of a worldwide pandemic, we find ourselves trying to adjust to a “new normal.” When I wrote to you last, we in North America were seemingly emerging from the worst and were hopeful that victory over the virus was in sight. But the global health crisis is far from over. We must stay vigilant and ever mindful of our role in protecting the health of the most vulnerable among us. ICUUW members, along with our partners around the world, have been working to strengthen women’s voices and leadership despite continuing challenges.
