Recent Findings on Racism, Sexual and Reproductive Health Issues During the Pandemic
Several manuscripts arising out of COVID-19 Task Force research have been published in The Rapid Assessment of COVID Evidence (RACE) Series in Ethnicity and Disease. The graphic below and the RACE series papers shine light on the spectrum of reproductive justice needs during the pandemic. In order to fully realize reproductive justice, structural determinants of equity must be considered across the reproductive lifespan, not simply during pregnancy or when considering maternal and infant morbidity and mortality disparities. Access to abortion, access to high quality education in childhood, access to safe and stable housing should all be considered good public health practice for improving inequities in maternal and infant mortality. And the bar needs to be higher than "not dying" for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color when it comes to measuring reproductive health. We hope that the findings of these papers contribute to the field in a meaningful way by opening space for conversations on how structural racism impacts reproductive health for communities of color and ways to achieve true wellbeing, abundance, and intergenerational thriving.
Publication of The Rapid Assessment of COVID Evidence (RACE) Series in Ethnicity & Disease
The Rapid Assessment of COVID Evidence (RACE) Series was published in Ethnicity and Disease because of its commitment to ensuring peer-reviewed findings on health equity are freely available to the public. While these links may introduce you to the RACE Series, please consider supporting the journal by accessing the articles from it directly. This improves the journal’s ability to track key impact metrics, such as how many times an article has been viewed or downloaded. Support for the Rapid Assessment of COVID Evidence (RACE) Series was provided in part by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (Grant #79361). The views expressed here do not necessarily reflect the views of the Foundation.
