With historically underrepresented communities experiencing higher
rates of COVID-19 infection and mortality, the pandemic has thrown
into stark relief the severe inequities in US health care. In this
special issue, a multidisciplinary group of contributors presents
empirical evidence for how the pandemic has had a
disproportionately negative impact on people of color, incarcerated
people, and people with disabilities. These articles show how the
pandemic response has been both wholly inadequate for the magnitude
of the problem and, in certain policy arenas, has exacerbated
existing inequities. Topics include changes in the treatment of
disabilities under crisis standards of care, systemic racism in the
federal pandemic health care response, and compounded racialized
vulnerability within incarceration facilities. The contributors
offer a dynamic and accessible analysis of the impacts of and
public attitudes about the varieties of inequity in the COVID-19
pandemic. Contributors. Zackary Berger, Andrea Louise Campbell,
Katharine Carman, Maria Casoni, Anita Chandra, Matthew Denney,
Doron Dorfman, Ramon Garibaldo Valdez, Sarah E. Gollust, Colleen
Grogan, Michael Gusmano, Morgan Handley, Yu-An Lin, Julia Lynch,
Carolyn Miller, Rebecca Morris, Ari Ne'eman, Christopher Nelson,
Sara Rosenbaum, Michael Sances, Michael Stein, Jhacova Williams
