@miketzeng1 @PNussenzweig @sudhavallii @rachelbabij @MClerkship This is such an important issue that has been under-recognized, especially given the rising prevalence of obesity.

Check out this infographic on weight bias in the healthcare system that my colleagues and I put together @PNussenzweig @sudhavallii @rachelbabij @MClerkship

@S__Baksh @MClerkship @catheri18173530 @CarrieSha3 @peejwalker So important to use non-pharmacologic means such as these to help improve cardiovascular health

Food deserts are a public health crisis engineered by institutionalized racism in America. Check out our infographic summarizing cardiovascular impacts & general strategies to advocate for patients experiencing food insecurity @MClerkship @catheri18173530 @CarrieSha3 @peejwalker

Health literacy is a growing problem in the world. Check out this infographic our group made @PalilloAnthony @StevenCajamarc8 @DanW_2021 @MClerkship

jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman… Recent article by Ogedegbe et al in @JAMANetworkOpen looked the racial/ethnic disparities in hospitalization/mortality during the COVID19 in NYC. It is interesting that black and Hispanic pts were more likely to test positive than white pts,

@PalilloAnthony It would be interesting to see how COVID-19 quarantine has differentially affected income between low-income vs high-income populations

"with subsequent within-home transmission in high-density, low-income households.” A clear demonstration of how the privileges of income, race, and employment can directly impact health #socialdeterminantsofhealth #SDOH #HealthDisparities

@MClerkship Fascinating article from Chamie et al (2020) that used community-level COVID-19 testing in census tract of SF academic.oup.com/cid/advance-ar…

Increasingly medical technologies are gaining attention for entrenching racism. In this 2019 @ScienceMagazine paper the authors find that a widely used algorithm to allocate more resources to "sicker" patients discriminates against Black people @MClerkship science.sciencemag.org/content/366/64…

@EvanHonig1 @MClerkship Interesting that out of hospital mortality has higher among black communities, but in hospital mortality was not.

Therefore, structural disparities in these communities may explain higher out of hospital COVID deaths. @MClerkship #socialdeterminantsofhealth #SDOH #socialjustice #healthdisparities

Areas with lower white population had less access to tests, and areas with lower SES and lower white population were more likely to test positive. @MClerkship #socialdeterminantsofhealth #SDOH #socialjustice #healthdisparities #healthequity
