American Journal of Public Health
On behalf of AJPH, the editors and Board want to express our deep sorrow and offer our sincere condolences to the victims, survivors, families, friends, and communities affected by the tragedy at the Pulse nightclub. This heartbreaking event has impacted various communities, including those who identify as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer, as well as Latino, Immigrant, and Muslim groups, all of whom already face social and health challenges. Many of the victims were young adults from diverse economic backgrounds. We extend our sympathies to everyone affected and strongly denounce violence against individuals based on their gender identity and sexual orientation, as well as any other forms of violence tied to discrimination based on race, ethnicity, immigration status, or religion, including Islam.

When we learn about loss in public health, it is often as an abstraction. We read and talk about the millions of people affected by poor health care systems, but they remain faceless statistics, their emotions and stories out of reach. In spring 2024, hoping to bridge this gap in my work in reproductive and maternal health care, I began meeting with a Boston, Massachusetts–based support group for parents who have lost their children during pregnancy or infancy.

Public health workers are the backbone of the US public health system, protecting health and saving lives through the delivery of essential public health services in communities across the country. Yet we struggle to answer a seemingly simple question about this important national asset: How many governmental public health workers are there in the United States?
