Background

Khan was born on October 14, 1978, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the son of a Pakistani immigrant father and a Catholic mother.

[5] Khan earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from Davidson College in 2000. [6]

Khan led efforts during the pandemic to help Philadelphians with accessibility barriers to access COVID testing and the vaccine. He helped sound the alarm early on regarding the lack of attention from the Trump administration to mitigate the crisis, and was a relentless advocate for federal support to states during the pandemic. [13] [14]

Khan created the Angel Dose vaccination program with Anna Perng. [15] Their novel program was recognized by the White House as an innovative model to assist communities with accessibility barriers, and the majority of the over 900 home COVID-19 vaccinations provided by Khan were performed after work or on his days off. [16] Khan and Perng were recognized for their work by GMA3: What You Need to Know, [17] People Magazine, [18] and The Philadelphia Inquirer. [19]
