Unspoken Consequences of Structural Racism in the USA: Diabetes and COVID-19.
Objectives: Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) are disproportionately impacted by the diabetes epidemic. This health inequity, aggravated by environmental, lifestyle, and genetic factors, has been further exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. The increased risk of severe complications due to COVID-19 in BIPOC communities speaks to the importance of understanding the impacts of social and structural factors on health. This report aims to outline the connection between diabetes and vulnerability to COVID-19 through the lens of racism.
Study design: Review of original report and subsequent modeling and interpretations.
Methods: We reviewed and analyzed original data in relation to health inequity, diabetes, COVID-19, and BIPOC.
Results: This holistic approach framed the disproportionate prevalence of diabetes and vulnerability to COVID-19 not just as a health disparity, but as a health inequity.
Conclusion: Defining the relationship between diabetes, vulnerability to COVID-19, and systems of advantage, such as racism, can further support the design of health interventions and policies that reduce the disproportionate impact of these diseases on the health of BIPOC communities.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Racial and Ethnic Health Disparities reports on the scholarly progress of work to understand, address, and ultimately eliminate health disparities based on race and ethnicity. Efforts to explore underlying causes of health disparities and to describe interventions that have been undertaken to address racial and ethnic health disparities are featured. Promising studies that are ongoing or studies that have longer term data are welcome, as are studies that serve as lessons for best practices in eliminating health disparities. Original research, systematic reviews, and commentaries presenting the state-of-the-art thinking on problems centered on health disparities will be considered for publication. We particularly encourage review articles that generate innovative and testable ideas, and constructive discussions and/or critiques of health disparities.Because the Journal of Racial and Ethnic Health Disparities receives a large number of submissions, about 30% of submissions to the Journal are sent out for full peer review.
