As Winter Storm Enzo impacts Greater Houston, I want to thank our @MDAndersonNews teammates who are working together to protect our patients and to keep our operations running smoothly. Thank you for your commitment and for your extraordinary efforts. #EndCancer
It’s a snowy day here in Houston, and our employees are enjoying seeing MD Anderson blanketed in snow. Thank you to the 2,059 employees on our ride-out team who are staying on site at our Texas Medical Center Campus to care for our patients and our facilities. Travel is dangerous and is discouraged. Stay safe and warm during this rare winter weather event.
