Are you a health care worker? Tell The Tribune how COVID-19 denial and misinformation have affected you.

(Trent Nelson | Tribune file photo) Free COVID-19 vaccines were available during at Red Iguana 2 in Salt Lake City on Friday, Aug. 13, 2021. As coronavirus spreads, largely among unvaccinated individuals, health care workers are reportedly facing hostility from some of the patients in their care.
