Healthcare Disparities of Coronavirus Regarding Racial Inequality - 0 views

  •  
    This publication outlines the healthcare disparities caused by Covid-19 (Coronavirus) in relation to racial inequality, specifically, the access and quality of healthcare of the black communities affected by the virus. This article suggests that if black people had better access to and quality of healthcare, then the subsequent communities would not be hit so hard by the virus.
  •  
    I agree with this sentiment. By doing a Google search of Corona virus cases by zip code, you'll find that areas that are mostly populated by minorities were hit the worst.

  •  
    This article focuses on Trans Lifeline, a hotline for transgender people. This hotline is completely founded and run by other transgender people aiming to help those who feel lost. The weight of the Coronavirus pandemic has significantly increased the number of calls placed due to a number of fears among trans people.

    I think it's awesome that there is a trans lifeline. With the amount of suicides and with the self harm rate increasing, there needs to be some thing for people to turn to that is more specialized in their needs.
  •  
    I never knew that there was a hot line for transgender people but I think that it's an amazing idea.

COVID-19 Impact on Arizona Students Education and Economically - 4 views

  •  
    Amidst the global pandemic, Arizona states students are failing statewide tests in both English and Math this spring with alarming numbers. Education officials had previously advised "extreme caution" in regards to making conclusions based on the number of cases. Disruptions to in-person learning during the pandemic due to the dramatic impact on student learning suggest "inferences may be invalid", according to the department. This years tests also painted a demographic split as White and Asian students passed these exams at twice as POC students. COVID-19 pandemic has had a disparate impact on communities of color, both economically and in loss of life.
  •  
    That's crazy to hear Covid has had such a negative impact on students performance in school, it's really disheartening. It is a rough transition going from learning in school, then trying to teach yourself through online school in quarantine, it's definitely not for everyone.

COVID-19 Impact: Healthcare workers Burnout - 4 views

  •  
    While the number of COVID 19 case continues to rise, Healthcare workers are succumbing to overwhelming pressure on their shoulders. Many hospitals, clinics, and labs are short-staffed with restricted resources at hand to properly treat patients who have the virus. Often times, this leads to non COVID 19 related issues to be pushed aside due to the conditions and priorities these facilities have enforced. They are experiencing stress, frustration, depression, loneliness, and many other concerns that could impact their performance on the front lines.

    I am so grateful for our healthcare workers. Times are tough right now. Health cares workers are on the frontline of this pandemic.

    This is an interesting article, It would be good to have a comparison with previous data from healthcare workers reviewing their stress levels before the pandemic to the data from the article and see what the difference is in their quality of life and their opinion of the healthcare system.
  •

  •  
    The Department of Justice has announced an update regarding fraudulent unemployment schemes across the nation using COVID 19 as a primary reason. Many financial aid programs for unemployment have been the targets of this issue with scammers milking the benefits that are provided from them. Action has been executed to ensure the protection of these programs and will hold accountable defendants who have been caught being involved of these schemes. The more unemployment fraud makes its way across the nation, even globally, it makes it difficult to provide assistance to people or businesses who are truly in need of the help.

It states that no immigrant will be detained or arrested when getting vaccinated and / or needing emergency assistance. It shows how people and government agencies are working together to fight the pandemic.
  •  
    This article is very heart-warming, as it describes how the authorities will not arrest illegal immigrants at vaccine drives. The authors do raise the question about what happens to illegal immigrants after receiving the vaccine. The U.S. has a history of mishandling Immigration. COVID only complicates the situation.
