The COVID-19 pandemic has left no part of the United States untouched. Yet, as with past pandemics and natural disasters, the health outcomes and effects of COVID-19 are experienced disproportionately by certain populations. While disparities in access to care and health outcomes have long-characterized the United States health care system, the COVID-19 pandemic has served to both highlight and exacerbate health disparities. The health disparities associated with COVID-19 are deeply troubling and must be addressed through the implementation of new policies or the reform of existing ones.
