Five on Friday

While the country’s major election dominated the headlines, other stories on the health needs of vulnerable populations slipped between the cracks. Here are a few articles that MCN staff shared this week.

This week’s Five on Friday features updates on refugees and migrants attempting to reach Europe and the US, along with critical information on pesticide drift in Washington State and farmworkers’ rights in New York State. 

This week, our offices mourned the loss of Health Network Associate, Ricardo Guerrero. It is hard to find the time for the grief and sadness that follows, as the pace of work has not slowed, and many migrants and clinicians continue to rely on us. Thank you for your patience and your continued support of MCN. Our thoughts and prayers are with Ricardo’s family. Here are some of the articles, shared by MCN staff this week.
