NORWICH For William W. Backus Hospital Emergency Department Nurse Sherri Dayton, learning that she’d be a part of one of the biggest American political events of the year was “surreal.”

Dayton was U.S. Rep. Joe Courtney’s virtual guest for the State of the Union on Wednesday night. Dayton’s invitation was due to her advocacy for one of the 2nd District Democrat’s bills, H.R. 1195, which aims to prevent workplace violence toward healthcare workers. That bill has currently passed in the House.

Guidance was evolving in real time.”
At the outset, she said, there were no therapeutics, no vaccines. A lot of cases had to be managed before widespread testing was available. Personal protective equipment, or PPE, was in short supply.
