Several faculty and staff members representing Columbia University Irving Medical Center participated in videos produced to encourage their fellow New Yorkers to get vaccinated against COVID-19.
Their stories, captured in 30- to 60-second videos, will be broadcast on major networks starting this week as part of “Roll Up Your Sleeves NY,” a COVID-19 public education campaign spearheaded by the New York governor’s office.
Their videotaped responses reveal why they chose to be vaccinated. “Because I’m ready to not be afraid,” says one CUIMC employee. “Because I do not want anyone else to lose a loved one the way that I did,” says another.

Failure to rescue refers to death resulting from severe maternal morbidity such as eclampsia, acute heart failure, and sepsis. The findings are published in the journal
Obstetrics and Gynecology. Despite the continuing decrease in failure to rescue over the entire study period, racial and ethnic disparities in failure to rescue persisted, underscoring the need to identify factors accounting for these disparities and to identify interventions to avoid potentially preventable deaths in racial and ethnic minority women, said Jean Guglielminotti, MD, PhD, in the Department of Anesthesiology
