| dc.description.abstract | The disproportionate effect of COVID-19 on the health of racial and ethnic minorities is becoming clear. Essential workers, many in low wage jobs, racial and ethnic minorities are at greater risk of contracting the virus. In addition to the economic impact due to job loss, COVID-19 has exposed disparate access to up-to-date information about the virus, to PPE and to healthcare. Hospitalization and mortality rates among African Americans are the highest of any group. Why is this happening? What can we do? Dr. Melissa Walker will moderate a panel exploring these issues including how access to testing and treatment could reduce the toll of COVID-19 for racial and ethnic minorities. | |
