The Public Health Pledge<p>We'll be updating our list of signatories again at the end of the day.</p><p>We're encouraged that, while ~90% of signatories are in tech because we started our efforts there, ~10% of signatories (and growing!) are from medical and academic backgrounds.</p><p>There is nothing about the <a href="https://floss.social/tags/PHPledge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PHPledge</span></a> that makes it specific to the tech industry. </p><p>We hope the researchers and healthcare workers among you help bring the pledge to more of your colleagues!</p>
