This book identifies the disparate impact of COVID-19 on disadvantaged communities. General readers and scholars of public health, human rights, and social sciences will gain key insights about the impact of the pandemic, how it disproportionately harmed members of already vulnerable communities, and why this happened.
The COVID-19 pandemic disproportionately harmed members of already disadvantaged and vulnerable communities. Focusing on five communities in the US with comparative data from other countries – children, older adults, women, people of color, and those who are incarcerated – The Unequal Pandemic explains why. The book points to the inadequacies of the public policies adopted to respond to the pandemic, evaluating their effectiveness and compliance with ethical norms and human rights obligations. By assessing the failures of the responses to the COVID-19 pandemic, the book outlines needed policy changes to rectify current disparities and respond more effectively in future health emergencies.
