One thing about AANHPI patients and communities during the pandemic, talking with their doctors is everything. Check the new patient education materials from our partners @AAPCHOtweets on severe COVID risk factors and treatment options https://t.co/Fq49YKwNLh #WeCanDoThis

“The best way we get out of this economic emergency is to end the public health emergency with key investments in health, and in human services for those who are suffering the most, lifting us all up together" @aewright says at @CommitToEquity press event supporting #AB1253

COVID-19 disparities among Black, Pacific Islander, Native American, and other communities of color are the result of existing disparities in the healthcare system, social determinants of health, and disparate rates of comorbidities -NOT hand washing regimens. #CoronavirusFacts

Y’all, I’m emotionally and physically depleted after speaking to the US House of Representatives yesterday, especially after hearing the misinformation from the Republican Representatives about Coronavirus and racial disparities.

@uche_blackstock Thank you for your testimony, you are not alone.

[NCAPIP @physicianvoice]

What's the trending hashtag for COVID-19 disparities? Asking for a bunch of friends.

They've created the table

NEW: "Pacific Islander communities in California have long faced economic and health disparities that make them uniquely vulnerable to the novel coronavirus. Often overlooked by public health officials, community leaders are mounting their own response." https://t.co/V2N5ggG4y7

Here's the full statement from @AmerMedicalAssn https://t.co/1lqOC7YBKr

[NCAPIP @physicianvoice]

With crimes against Asian Americans increasing, including physically violent ones, due to being ignorantly held responsible for the pandemic, the labeling of #coronavirus as #chinesevirus only benefits these harmful attitudes and acts.

[NCAPIP @physicianvoice]

Referring to #coronavirus or #COVID19 the #ChineseVirus "serves no legitimate purpose". That's according to us, our partners and community stakeholders, the @AmerMedicalAssn , and the vast majority of the healthcare and medical communities.

[NCAPIP @physicianvoice]

Xenophobia has always existed in the United States, with Americans of different origins having shared and vastly different experiences. For Asians, there's the perpetual foreigner, the non-American, and much cruder references that are a day to day reality for many.

This. We just released a report w/ recs for CDC(https://t.co/Eksd058nUg) that cites your work, as one of the first to report on this disturbing (and sadly, predictable trend). We need a new standard of demographic data collection to aid population health and health equity!

"Time and again, a state or county releases racial data. Time and again, those numbers reveal a racial disparity. . .America’s newest infection seems to be mating w/ America’s original infection, reproducing not life, but death."
