COVID-19's impact on people living in poverty is tremendous. For black Americans, poverty rates are more than double that of white Americans. Mix the challenges of poverty with the challenges of racism, and you've created a lethal combo of pre-existing conditions for coronavirus.

As cities and states are in the first phases of reopening, it can be difficult to navigate how to maintain social distancing practices. Disagreements will arise, so it's important to figure out how to handle them when they come up. https://t.co/tbvOwPndyY

"The risk of the spread of Covid-19 is clearly elevated at demonstrations...yet the tension between Covid-19 & the protests did not even occur to me...because as a black physician, I understand that the protests are the necessary medicine for both ills." https://t.co/XAUs5JlS5e

Here are 3 ways medical racism shapes COVID-19 treatment for black people
1. Black patients are more often denied testing & care for coronavirus.
2. Black communities lack access to testing & medical supplies.
3. Few governments are collecting & reporting data on race & COVID-19.

"This loss means an increase in unaddressed 'racial inequality,' with countless opportunities for 'job creation, economic advancement, and longer-term wealth' disappearing."

As we help communities learn about the virus and how to stay safe, we will share information about COVID-19's impact on black communities, resources from black organizations and businesses, and ways to support anti-racism efforts in the time of coronavirus.

With our nation grappling the impacts of police violence and coronavirus, we must be honest about who bears the burden of these inequities. Black people are dying at disproportionate rates from COVID-19, and it is not due to chance.

Today as you honor those who have and do serve our country, take a moment of silence to remember the service members lost to COVID-19. Over 1,000 veterans and active-duty members have been lost to the virus.

To our service members, thank you for all that you do #MemorialDay2020
