Please help dental hygienists get recognized as Covid-19 vulnerable workers in the United States.

Dental hygiensts need help from our elected officials.  Dental hygienists are educated dental healthcare workers.  We are exposed to aerosols daily while working and caring for our patients. We deserve to be included in Covid-19 financial relief legislation both on the state and federal level. Most dental hygienists are employed by small businesses. Covid-19 financial relief legislation is vital for the 150,000 dental hygienists working in the United States.  We have financial obligations just like our employers do.
