COVID-19 and race: Double emergencies for women of color

Women of color face unique health challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic. This disproportionate impact on women of color should not be dealt with by women and their families alone. Dealing with existing health and social conditions in addition to the COVID-19 health crisis requires paying special attention to the information shared to leverage these important data points for the development of targeted programs. By addressing the definition of what is an emergency and how women of color indeed are facing both preexisting and COVID-19 emergencies, via collected data available, acknowledges their compounded health implications and need for prompt action.
