Mayo Clinic President and CEO Gianrico Farrugia, MD, said in a statement, “We recognize that the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic has taken an emotional and physical toll on staff. [The day] is intended to thank our staff and give them time to recharge themselves so they can continue to deliver the best possible patient care.”
