SUMMARY:Systemic Racism & Health: Solutions\, Making Change Happen
DESCRIPTION:Aug. 11\, 1-2 p.m. ET \nThe COVID-19 pandemic has placed a spotlight on the impact of systemic racism on the health of Black Americans. Long-standing social and economic inequities have contributed to multiple social determinants of health that increase the risk of getting or dying from COVID-19. In the United States\, Black Americans are dying at 2.5 times the rate of white Americans\, while facing barriers to testing\, treatment\, and options for prevention and self-protection.
