Pursuing Data on COVID-19: The Health Inequity Multiplier

Webinar //

Date:

Apr 28 2020, 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM EST

Description

As we learn more about COVID-19, the information about the pandemic we receive is fluid. Most recently, there have been some limited data regarding the disproportionate burden of the pandemic on communities of color. This is of course a major concern for all who are focused on achieving health equity. Join this webinar convened by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine Roundtable on the Promotion of Health Equity.
