SUMMARY:COVID-19 - Health Inequities: Addressing the Disease Burden in Black\, Indigenous & PoC Communities
DESCRIPTION:This webinar\, part of the COVID-19 Webinar Miniseries\, explains why the novel coronavirus has disproportionately impacted Black\, Indigenous\, and People of Color communities. Existing data shows that people in these communities are more likely to contract COVID-19 and are at higher risk of being hospitalized or dying from the disease. For example\, while Black people make up about 13 percent of the U.S. population\, they account for 24 percent of COVID-19 deaths where race is known (COVID-19 Tracking Project). Disparities also exist among Latinx\, American Indian\, Alaskan Native\, and Pacific Islander populations. These disparities can be linked to a number of complex and interrelated issues\, including limited access to medical services\, socioeconomic disadvantages\, and the effects of structural inequities and discrimination. \n\n\nModerator: Laurie Zephyrin\, The Commonwealth Fund \n\n\nAdaeze Enekwechi\, IMPAQ\, LLC \n\n\nRachel Hardeman\, University of Minnesota School of Public Health \n\n\nWizdom Powell\, UConn Health\, Health Disparities Institute \n\n\nTuesday\, June 16\, noon – 1 p.m. ET \nRegister Now \nThis webinar is a project of the Alliance for Health Policy\, with support from NIHCM Foundation and The Commonwealth Fund. \n
