We are in the midst of events that highlight health disparities and inequities. Preliminary data has shown that African Americans are dying from COVID-19 at higher rates than whites, even though they make up a smaller percentage of the population. The pandemic is bringing to light health inequities that have existed for many years. Protest around the world are also calling attention to other inequities.

Today's host is Linda Howard and the panelists are Dr. Marwan Abouljoud, Kelly Ranum, Dr. Tyler Amell, Andrea Johnson, and Barry Massa.
