[Hanni Stoklosa, MD MPH @hstoklosa]

lessons from this trafficking case for health professionals: 1) intellectual disability is a vulnerability to trafficking 2) work-related injuries may be a “red flag” for trafficking (here: oil burns to neck in restaurant worker) #endtraffickingnow @HEALTrafficking @IOFA1
