Happy Holidays MAPA! “2020 started off like every other January 1st, a day to start new habits, set new goals, read more books etc. As we started our individual treks into the beginning of 2020, a new word came into our vocabulary, Coronavirus aka COVID-19. The more we learned about Covid and began to see the workings of this debilitating virus the more we, as PAs, were called into action. We are looked upon to put in more hours and care for more patients. MAPA board members and myself could not be more proud of each of you and truly thank you for everything that you have done during this novel time. We would like to wish you all Happy Holidays and a safe new year!!!” -Abby Young MAPA President
