?:abstract
  • The COVID-19 pandemic is revealing the deeply entrenched structural inequities in health that exist in the United States We draw parallels between the COVID-19 pandemic and our cardiovascular health equity research focused on physical activity and diabetes to highlight three common needs: (1) access to timely and disaggregated data;(2) how to integrate community-engaged approaches in telehealth;and (3) policy initiatives that explicitly integrate health equity and social justice principles and action We suggest that a similar sense of urgency regarding COVID-19 should be applied to slow the burgeoning costs and suffering associated with cardiovascular disease overall and in marginalized communities specifically We remain hopeful that the current crisis can serve as a guide for aligning our principles as a just and democratic society with a health agenda that explicitly recognizes that social inequities in health for some impacts all members of society
